at Dakini Mountain, Nevada City, CA

June 1-4, 2023

Chod is a meditation especially for working with one’s mind in difficult times.

The 2023 Chod retreat is a profound occasion of the sangha gathering for the first in person retreat since the pandemic at the glorious land of Dakini Mountain in the scenic Tahoe National Forest of Northern California. We will also celebrate Saga Dawa, the birthday and enlightenment day of the Buddha together in person with spiritual community!
