Retreat Cabin Project

Chögyal Namkhai Norbu indicated we need to build one simple retreat cabin and one dual purpose cabin that will also be used for dark retreat. View proposed cabins.

We have selected two suitable sites on the land where each cabin will be built and have begun preparing the land for construction. The isolated location, whilst being perfect for quiet retreat, requires special effort from practitioners to go go there to assist in the construction.
We have a camping area for people with tents and envisage an outside location for a Vajra Dance Mandala.

Sean Jameson is our man living there and Jerri Bassi is the Project Manager. Anyone interested to go to help or with ideas or enquiries can conact Jerri on jerri.bassi@gmail.com

Financial Report.
Chögyal Namkhai Norbu has already made a very generous donation to the project, although more funds are need to bring the project to full fruition.

To build both cabins and facilities we estimate NZ $25,000

We would like to invite DCC Members to buy Retreat Time, or to make donations so if you wish you can credit your donation and book time for dark or light retreat cabin.

Your money will be used specifically for the Karamea project if deposited into the account listed below
