Tibetan Arts July 11-13 Artists always gather to decorate the monastery and create the many paintings and offerings necessary for the teachings. In preparation for the many events we will offer at Vajra Dakini, we wish to create a special door to the nunnery and decorate the stupa. Artists, crafts people and volunteers who wish to learn about the Tibetan art tradition are welcome to camp at the Peace Village nearby, join in morning meditation and help with the painting and sculpture.

Exploring Monastic Community Aug 30-Sept 6 Taking any level of vows, lay or monastic, is a serious step. Vajra Dakini will offer residential retreats for women to clarify their commitment. We offer an immersion into practice life for those who are considering ordination or who wish to experience monastic life as a nun for a short period of time. Aspirants will be participating in various aspects of monastic training including meditation training, mores, service. This retreat is intimate with a lot of personal contact for questions and reflections and therefore limited to 4 participants. Khenmo Drolma will be joined by Ani Konchog Lhamo to offer guidance and personal experience.
