In Pursuit of Mysteries: Buddhist Classwork and Retreats

    You might also check out the Vajra Vidya center in Crestone, CO, which is affiliated with Thrangu Rinpoche. They do something a little similar to some Western Christian monasteries, where you can stay there for a period and do some individual and some group practices, and there are also a couple resident lamas you can talk with about practice issues. I haven't been there but know someone who has, and it seems like a very conducive and credible scene. Thrangu R's. stuff is absolutely as good as it gets.

    Now, just because we haven't scheduled our retreat *yet* doesn't mean it's not going to happen... it just means that right now we're about as busy as you are. :-)

    So how about this - make a retreat proposal!

    I propose that we do a retreat! :-) All right, I'll ponder on it.

    Bill, yes, I've heard of the place. One of my good friends, Nathan, is a student of Thrangu Rinpoche's and was involved with the creation of the place in Crestone. I should see what they're up to...
