Tara Mandala Celebrates Returning to the Land

Dear Sangha

We are excited to be welcoming you all to the land in Colorado this Summer, for our first onsite retreats since December 2019.

Our Summer season on the land has always been brimming with abundance, connection and sacred space. The energy of the land, community, and transformation truly comes to life when we all convene together to hear the precious Dharma. Connecting in person is an experience we all are looking forward to again. We invite you to join us for this special time of retreat, renewal, and celebration! Browse our first two onsite retreat offerings below, and we encourage you to check our website for additional future retreat announcements, as we have some new offerings in the works!

We hope to see you in person soon!

Returning to Tara Mandala Retreat Center

We originally had planned to not host any retreats on the land in 2022. Now that the world is starting to “open up”, we are honored and overjoyed to once again be a place of refuge for people all over the world.
Our guiding objective for 2022 is Increased Access and Diversified Offerings. With this in mind, we would like to remind you that these onsite offerings are being offered at 35% below our regular rate. This is our gift to you!
