Shortly after the publication of The Profound Treasury, a group of early Trungpa Rinpoche students had the inspiration to hold a nine-day retreat in order to study Trungpa Rinpoche’s teachings in an atmosphere similar to that in which they were first presented. The success of the retreat inspired this group to plan subsequent retreats following the same model. Since then, many people have joined in to make these retreats possible.
Profound Treasury Retreats provide an opportunity to spend nine days each year focusing on meditation practice and dharma study. They include a main course, taught by Judy Lief, as well as courses taught by other experienced teachers. Profound Treasury Retreats are infused with the spirit of beginner’s mind, where curious students can come together to explore, question, and learn from each other, regardless of age or experience level. They arise each year as a group creation, a collective effort.
