Winter Staff Retreat Fund |

Vajrapani Institute closes down annually in January to enable its staff to partake in personal retreat. Our ability to create conducive conditions for retreatants depends largely on our staff being able to deepen their own practices.
As Jon Landaw, esteemed teacher of the FPMT Bay area and Vajrapani's spiritual advisor said recently:
'The staff members are sincerely dedicated to creating the best retreat environment they can and they are acutely aware that this means more than providing their guests with comfortable rooms, nourishing food, and the like. As important as these are, far more important is for those in retreat to be cared for by people with peaceful minds and open hearts, people who are actively engaged in opposing the destructive forces of delusion and self-cherishing in their own lives.' In 2010 Vajrapani Institute's Board of Directors made a commitment to support the staff by establishing a Winter Staff Retreat Fund to sponsor staff's rent, food and health insurance costs during retreat.
Help us to support the staff in their personal spiritual journey!
