"My vision for Yeshe Rangsal is a place where practice and study will be the means for us to become sane human beings. From the ground of basic sanity, deepening our practice in retreat, we develop into accomplished yogis and yoginis on the path to enlightenment."
Tsoknyi Rinpoche III
Yeshe Rangsal is the cornerstone of an expanding mandala of activity in Crestone. In addition to two annual summer retreats, the Monthlong, and weekly practice groups, we envision longer retreat periods, seminars and special teachings similar. Approximately 40 of Rinpoche’s students have already come to live in Crestone, many in close proximity to the Retreat land, forming a growing sangha.
Bodhicitta, the mind of enlightened compassion, lies at the heart of Buddhist teachings. Each one of us has the capacity for this inner liberation, but we need guidance and practice. To create a fruitful setting for such Dharma practice, Rinpoche has established the Yeshe Rangsal retreat Center as his seat in the West.
Yeshe Rangsal (self-cognizant wakefulness) lies on Pundarika’s 55 acres of secluded retreat land in Crestone, Colorado. The Enlightenment Stupa was recently built at the heart of the land and a shrine to Dorje Yudronma (protectress of Yeshe Rangsal) is essentially complete. Our vision is that one day the Stupa will be accompanied by a small shrine hall, a three-year retreat facility, and retreat cabins. A small and lovely home was purchased for Rinpoche in September 2008, on property bordering the Yeshe Rangsal land.
