Dakini’s Whisper is deeply honored to present the Refuge Vow Ceremony, generously bestowed by Chöying Khandro, on November 15, 2025, from 12:00 to 14:00 PT.

What Is Your True Refuge?

In times of turbulence and uncertainty, where do you turn for refuge? Khandro-la reminds us of the Buddha’s timeless words: “Be a lamp unto yourself.” She teaches that this ultimate refuge—the awakening within—is the very foundation of our journey. Without it, there is no path.

Whether you are a new student entering the authentic Dharma path or a long-term practitioner wishing to renew and deepen your refuge, this ceremony offers an auspicious opportunity to reconnect with your innermost commitment during these challenging times.

The Importance of Refuge in Daily Life

Finding refuge is essential for our well-being. It provides a sense of security and peace. In our busy lives, we often forget to pause and reflect. This ceremony invites you to take a moment for yourself. It encourages you to explore your inner landscape and discover what truly supports you.

During the ceremony, you will have the chance to engage in practices that foster this connection. You will learn how to cultivate a deeper understanding of your true self. This understanding can guide you through life's challenges.

If you wish to receive a refuge name, please indicate so in the registration form.
