News From Berlin

Nine Huber reports about the recent Soul Retrieval retreat organized by Garuda Germany that was held in Berlin on May 21-23. Nearly 100 enthusiastic participants from all over Europe had the opportunity to attend this wonderful retreat, during which Rinpoche taught the ancient shamanic rites of soul retrieval (la gu) and life-force retrieval (tse gu) and guided retreatants in meditation practice. The practice and ritual are powerful methods for overcoming negative influences, cultivating positive qualities, and helping one to heal on all levels of body, speech, and mind. Says Nine, “We are grateful that Rinpoche offered this opportunity and will continue to practice the Soul Retrieval in our Centers.”

Nine invites everyone to attend the upcoming retreat in Buchenau, Germany (near Frankfurt), August 2 through 8, on the topic of “The Three Doors: Self-Realization Through Body, Speech, and Mind” >  For more information, contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
