Your friends from the Midwest are looking forward to welcoming everyone for a national course at the Heartland Retreat Center.

Here are a few specific points to be aware of.

The cabin at the HRC will be a quiet (kid-free) space, reserved for meditation, small group instructions, and meetings during the course. The gompa will constantly be available for meditation, and this course represents one of the last opportunities for a while to meditate in the presence of both the filled life-size 16th Karmapa statue and Lama Ole's ~200 year-old Dukar Thankga simultaneously, as she will move on afterwards.
