Channel Tour 2010

TRAVELLING with Lama Ole Nydahl

An amazing opportunity to travel in a small group together with Lama Ole through western Europe’s most famous capitals: Paris, London, Brussels and Amsterdam.

The Hidden Jewel
Yes it is! Every city you visit, every lecture you hear, every party you join, every Kagyu you meet: they are all jewels.

But how would you know? hidden somewhere in early autumn, when daylight is shortening most are preparing longer evening sessions. Or perhaps resting from a long summer full of activity. Just a small group of only 75 Kagyu’s are then able to travel on this exclusive tour, where at the end you might feel the Kagyu family experience. It is a unique chance to see how our Lama works so many hours, answers so many questions and is as bright and clear as always when giving his lectures.

Channel Retreat

The Channel Retreat

Each year one of the Channel Countries organizes a retreat weekend.

A weekend where there is time for teachings, explanations, questions, friendship and parties.
We invite an international Travel Teacher for teachings, but also provide the possibility to ask questions or get explanations from one of the many local, national and international travel teachers that the Channel Countries have to offer.

It is an excellent opportunity to get to know the Channel Countries, the efforts that we take and to see the common development we make. You will have a chance to find out what is going on in Paris, London, Brussels and Amsterdam. But also in the many other centers and groups that we have.

There will be time to do your personal meditations or to get explanations for your current or next practice.

And yes! We would not be true Kagyu’s if we would not take time for our friendship and PARTY!

There you go: reasons enough to join the Channel Retreat!

Next Channel Retreat is in Spring 2011 in France
