Rigpa US welcomes Sogyal Rinpoche back to the East Coast for our annual spring retreat.

 

Sogyal Rinpoche

With his remarkable gift for presenting the heart essence, spirit and flavor of Tibetan Buddhism in a way that is both authentic and profoundly relevant to the modern mind, Sogyal Rinpoche is one of the most renowned teachers of our time.

A world-renowned Buddhist teacher from Tibet, Sogyal Rinpoche is also the author of the highly acclaimed The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying.

The atmosphere that Rinpoche creates is of incredible warmth, love, and penetrating insight, as if he were speaking directly to the heart of each and every person present.

Retreat Venue

The retreat is set on the beautiful campus of Connecticut College, flanked by a 750-acre Arboretum on the shores of Long Island Sound.
