January in the International retreat Centers

Gaining Spiritual Insights at IKRCs

Offering an opportunity for deep contemplation and meditation, Kadampa International Retreat Centers are perfect places for gaining profound insight into the Buddhist path to enlightenment. Everyone seeking a peaceful, qualified, and meaningful retreat to gain a new perspective on life is warmly welcomed to join a retreat at one of these centers.

January holds a unique place in the Kadampa calendar, as it is traditionally an opportunity for practitioners to withdraw from busy activities and engage in retreats. In January the IKRCs offer longer retreats with qualified guidance so that people can gain deep experience of their practice. Everyone is welcome to join, whether for the entire retreat or just a portion of it. See below for the retreats currently taking place at the retreat centers.
