Please join the main Diamond Way Buddhism USA event of the year - the annual national course - which will be held this year at the Western Retreat Center (WRC).
The course will take place over Wednesday, June 3rd - Sunday, June 7th. We will have four days together to meditate, share the Dharma, and celebrate our connections and common activity.
WRC is located on the Central Coast of California, nestled in the mountains of Gabilan and Diablo Ranges. It offers the "top of the world" views in the setting of acoustical and visual privacy. All eighty acres of its pristine, protected land provide an excellent opportunity for a sustainable, off-the-grid meditation retreat experience in harmony with the natural beauty of the surrounding area, and without the distractions of modern life.
Per wishes and direction of Lama Ole Nydahl, the WRC is also the future site of the Kalachakra Stupa.
Please view the schedule of the Course Prep & Practice Retreats and email wrc-kitchen@diamondway.org the number of people in your party and the dates/times of your arrival/departure if you are planning to attend some of these events. N.B.: the registration for the last course build-up push over the Memorial Day weekend and tear-down days after the course is included in the main course registration.
This course is suitable for experienced and new lay practitioners of Diamond Way Buddhism. If you have any questions, please contact us at course2026@diamondway.org.
The precise directions to WRC will be provided soon!
