Day 7 ~ Free Day
Jul 31, 2026
Over two weeks, the Festival will emphasise teachings and meditations on Advice from Atisha's Heart from our two most senior Teachers. For the first time, all of Venerable Geshe-la's oral transmissions on the verses will be brought together, including his special advice on how to engage in retreat on this text. Through Venerable Geshe-la's encouragement and blessings Gen-la Dekyong and Gen-la Jampa will transmit a complete commentary to all the verses.

It's the free day - a day that is by turns a day of rest, recreation, arrival and preparation. Many people who are here for the whole Festival head out for an adventure into the beautiful lake district, with its stunning mountains, charming towns and picturesque lakes.
