Join us for a supportive group practice as part of the 2026 FPMT Global Mani Retreat. Together we will practice The Source of All Attainments: The Yoga of the Inseparability of the Guru and Avalokiteshvara and recite the mantra OM MANI PADME HUM.

These sessions are an opportunity to practise in community, strengthen our motivation of compassion and bodhicitta, and contribute collectively to the worldwide accumulation of Mani mantras throughout the retreat period.

Whether you are participating in the Global Mani Retreat from home or simply wish to join in group practice, you are warmly welcome.

Note: Retreat Advisor KHEN RINPOCHE GESHE CHONYI has advised that if you are planning to attend any of the Chenrezig Group Practice sessions, it is highly recommended that you be vegetarian* for that day.  Better still, take the 8 Mahayana Precepts on that morning.

For all the other days that you plan to complete at least one Chenrezig sadhana, it is good for you to be vegetarian* at least for the meal that you take prior to the sadhana.

* “Vegetarian” in this case means ”no black foods” in addition to “no meat”.  Black foods include garlic, onion, leeks, chives, egg, radish.
