On 24 February 2026, a very special and joyful day at Thrangu Sekhar Retreat Center. With deep appreciation and prayers, we celebrate 45 retreatants who have successfully completed an important stage of their retreat. 30 practitioners have completed their six-year retreat and, with great dedication, have chosen to continue for another six years of practice. Their perseverance and commitment to the Dharma are truly inspiring.
15 retreatants have completed their four-year retreat and will now journey to Thrangu Pullahari in India to continue their spiritual training and practice.
At the same time, we warmly welcome 15 new retreatants who have courageously begun their four-year retreat, entering the path of deep study, meditation, and transformation.
On this meaningful occasion, we offer heartfelt prayers for all practitioners — those continuing, those moving forward, and those just beginning. May their retreat be free of obstacles. May their practice flourish. May their realization benefit countless beings.
