We are very much looking forward to welcoming Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche back to Gomde in August.
In this profound yet accessible seminar, Rinpoche will illuminate why we need to practice the sacred Dharma, how to engage in authentic practice, and the transformative results it brings. His teachings will be rooted in The Thirty-Seven Practices of a Bodhisattva, a timeless guide to compassionate and awakened conduct.
Expanding upon this essential text, Rinpoche will also offer key insights into the view of Mahamudra, the Great Perfection (Dzogchen), and the Great Middle Way (Madhyamaka)—three pinnacle teachings that point directly to the nature of mind and reality.
This is a precious opportunity to receive instruction from one of the great living masters of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
With his clear, lively and warm-hearted manner, Rinpoche will convey the timeless wisdom of the Buddha in a direct and inspiring way – supported by deep experience, compassion and humor. We can expect clear teachings that speak to both heart and mind, as well as an atmosphere that is open, lively and borne of genuine joy in the practice. His teachings make it easy to understand even complex contexts and to develop a deeper connection to one’s own mind and practice.
A wonderful opportunity to pause, gain new perspectives and be inspired together with an open Sangha.
The seminar is open to everyone – with and without previous experience.
Further details will follow shortly. A warm welcome!

Accommodation
Assistance during the seminarSince
Gomde is run exclusively by volunteers, the help of all participants is required during the seminar. This means that all participants can donate some of their time to this valuable event and make it possible. After mutual agreement, each participant is given a task for about 40-60 minutes a day.
For example: helping in the kitchen, vacuuming, cleaning the sanitary facilities, etc. We are very happy about your help and try to find a suitable task for everyone.
Your contribution to this seminarIt
is incredibly fortunate that we once again have our founder, abbot and spiritual leader Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche with us in Gomde to share his teachings with you all.
Rangjung Yeshe Gomde would like to enable all those interested to participate in the immeasurably precious Dharma teachings. The center provides you with good food, as many as possible with a place to sleep and provides the infrastructure for all visitors.
A stable team of volunteers works all year round to maintain, renovate and keep the place running. Others make a regular contribution, others give one-off donations, and still others make a donation for participation in seminars.
For a large seminar like the one with Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche, many costs have to be covered: e.g. flight tickets, donations to the teachers, the translators, energy costs, etc.
We want everyone to be able to attend the seminars in Gomde, regardless of their income. To ensure that the fixed costs are still covered, we provide guidelines for an appropriate donation contribution.
We thank you in advance for your generosity and for appreciating the value of this opportunity.
Please do not hesitate to let us know if your donation is not in line with the stated value. We will find a solution with you!
Please consider in your self-assessment how much you spend on food, vacations and leisure in your everyday life.
Every person who can give more enables others with fewer resources to participate in the seminar and maintain the center.
Orientation values for your donationWe
ask you for a donation to cover the fixed costs for your participation in the seminar with Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche and other teachers present. If this amount is beyond your means, please let us know when you register. If you are able to give more, you will enable others with fewer resources to participate.
- Single room: 1080 €
- Double room (per person): 840 €
- Shared room (per person): 810 €
- Dormitory: 720 €
- Camping / Wisdom Dorm: 600 €
- Without overnight stay (plus food): € 540
Two Weeks, One Path: The Heart of Wisdom: With Phakchok and Chökyi Nyima RinpocheDirectly
after the seminar with Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche, on August 20, another highlight of the summer begins; the seminar with Phakchok Rinpoche until August 24.
Both are great masters, different in their own way and attending their seminars in combination is a special enrichment.
We therefore invite you to book all 13 days as one seminar – this also reduces the fixed costs for Gomde and the orientation value becomes more favorable. You only have to take 9 days of vacation to immerse yourself in “the heart of wisdom” for these two weeks.
If you want to participate in the whole seminar – please adjust the date fields accordingly.
