Trekchö Retreat

This retreat focuses on the practice of trekchö, sometimes known as ‘cutting through the hardness’ of our dualistic grasping so that we have the ability to experience and then repeatedly familiarize ourselves with the experience of our primordially pure nature. This practice is refreshingly, and sometimes deceptively, simple and can lead us to directly experiencing the nature mind free from the play of afflictive emotions. Through the practice of trekchö meditation we can begin to familiarize ourselves with the view of the Great Perfection, or Ati Yoga, in a way that increases our understanding of mind and appearance while leading to the practical benefits of more embodied, less anxious, being.
