Basic Program Retreats

FPMT Buddhist Retreat Centers

Here you find information about retreats in FPMT centers that offer students of the BASIC PROGRAM the possibility to fullfill the three-month Lam-rim retreat requirement. This Basic Program completion requirement can be fulfilled by doing three times one month of lam-rim retreat, or in longer stretches; one three-month retreat is recommended as the ideal way to integrate the study of the Basic program subjects.
 
For BASIC PROGRAM Homestudy students, the completion requirement is a one-month Lam-rim retreat.

FPMT offers several other Buddhist study programs in addition to the Basic Program; for more information, please click here.

*Additions and corrections to your Basic Program retreat as listed here can be made by contacting Education Services .
