Phowa Retreat 2027

The profound Phowa practice

In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Phowa is one of the most powerful practices. Phowa literally means 'transference'. It involves the conscious transfer of your consciousness at the moment of death. This is to a state of clarity and freedom. It is often seen as a rebirth in a pure land. But Phowa is not just about that final moment.

Living with openness and trust

Phowa also reminds you of impermanence. You see this reflected every day in the seasons, in relationships, in your body, and in the world around you. Everything changes, nothing remains the same. If you deeply realize this, you learn not to live in fear. You learn to live with more openness, freedom, and trust. Lama Jigmé Rinpoche shares these rare and valuable lessons from 23 April to 2 May 2027. He makes the essence of Phowa tangible with his clear, warm, and practical approach. It is not a distant or complicated subject. It is a vivid insight that can inspire you to experience every moment with more awareness and freedom. This is a rare opportunity to receive this timeless transmission directly from an authentic master and to practice together.
