During this summer retreat, which took place in Vercorin, a village in the midst of the beautiful swiss mountains, Namkha Rinpoche turned the wheel of Dharma in an extraordinary way. The first day, he gave two of his students (Rigdzin Dorje Lhamo and Rigdzin Damchö Dorje) the tantric vows. Then, He gave the complete transmission and teaching on the Bardo Thödöl or Tibetan Book of the Dead, explaining in details each stages of the bardo. Rinpoche gave as well an elaborate Tchenrezi initiaion during two days.
For all of its 40 members, this retreat has been just a marvelous week, which has been celebrated during the last day by a vast Tsog offering and the display of the 6 meters high Guru Rinpoche Thangka.
