About this Retreat
Your Guides
Drupon Lama Dorje was born in a small village called Limi in the Himalayas and became a traditional Buddhist monk at the age of 5 under the Drikung Kagyu lineage. At the age of 24 he entered a 4-year solo retreat in the mountains of India where he trained deeply in the five-fold path of Mahamudra and the Six Yogas of Naropa.
Directly after this retreat, he was assigned to travel to Chile to expand the Buddha Dharma. For more than 14 years, Drupon Lama Dorje has spread Buddhist philosophy of life across South and Central America through diverse events, ceremonies, courses and retreats; produced music & CDs, written books to apply Buddhist principles to modern life, formed many sanghas throughout the region, and led sacred journeys to India and Nepal.
Nowadays he travels the world skillfully teaching Tibetan Philosophy of Life & meditation while also advocating for topics such as environmental regeneration, intercultural unity, and resilient education.
His vision is to awaken the consciousness of all beings, unite all cultures in global peace, and regenerate our home, the Earth, by expanding the altruistic actions of unconditional love, compassion, joy, and equanimity for the sake of all that live.
His root Lamas are H.E. Garchen Rinpoche, Drupön Jampa Rigzin Rinpoche, H.H. Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang. And has received additional teachings from H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama, 17th Karmapa, H.E. Khenchen Konchok Gyaltsen Rinpoche, Dzongzar Khyentse Rinpoche, amongst other precious teachers.
Lama Dorje was certified as a retreat master (Drupon) of the Drikung Kagyu lineage on February 26, 2018 by His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche.

Weekly Meditation On Compasion
Join Tibetan meditation master, Drupon Lama Dorje, each week on Monday to center your heart in love and compassion.
Strengthening your heart, presence, and calmness is one of the best ways to transform your the way you interact with a world that is fast and unsettling.
Each Monday, Lama shares spontaenous heart teachings filled with joy, inspiration, and practical instructions to transform our lives through inner growth. He pulls from his personal experience and a lifetime of practice to answer questions and guide us back to our innate home in the heart.
Join us (most) Mondays at 7pm Costa Rica time. Please calculate your time zone according to your country, as Costa Rica does not change its time zone.
Occasionally we will skip a Monday due to Lama's schedule. For real time infomation about Meditation Monday (and all events), please join our International Sangha WhatsApp group by clicking this LINK or emailing info@lamadorje.net.
The Practice
Primarily our practice is centered around Tonglen, an ancient meditation method to awaken compassion. Tonglen is a fundamental daily practice for transforming any situation into happiness. Instead of rejecting tough experiences and relationship dynamics, we will practice recycling our struggles into compassion and loving kindness. Every situation becomes an opportunity to cultivate more openness and a deep inner sense of ease.
Why Monday?
Starting your Monday with a meditation can be very supportive practice to set your intention and approach the week with calm clarity.
Is this Practice For Me?
Although this practice comes from the Buddhist tradition, everyone of any and all beliefs and experience levels are encouraged to join us in this healing meditation.
What Language?
This event is bilingual in Spanish with English translation
