  Ah, super, I hoeever will be only able to attend this 
  retreat below:
 
 August 4-5th Madison WI 
 1st Annual Younge Dorje Drollo Drub-chod
 Friday 6-9pm Initiation to the Dorje Drollo Mandala/ Tsog feast
 Saturday and Sunday 9am - 12pm / 1pm- 5pm Recitation and ritual 
   activities of the Drollo Mandala
 Location: Quarry Arts Building Room 150
 (East of Whole Foods) at 715 Hill St.
 
 Rinpoche has asked the sangha to do a yearly short, but 
 intensive Dorje Drollo Drub Chod. He strongly encourages 
 all RSL sanghas throughout the world to join in the practice 
 and tsog on this important day, dedicating the merit to all 
 sentient beings and to world peace.
 
 A Drub Chod is a structured event over several days consisting 
 of the Empowerment, instruction and practice of the sadhana. 
 This gives students a chance to work on accumulation and 
 meditation in Rinpoche's presence, receiving added blessings 
 and guidance
 
 August 4th is the most auspicious day on the calendar as it 
 marks the Anniversary of Padmasambhava's manifestation as 
 Dorje Drollo to subdue all harmful corrupters of the Dharma. 
 Therefore please make an effort to arrive the Friday evening 
 of the event, which will continue through Saturday and Sunday 
 
 Dorje Drollo is the main Heruka deity for the RSL sangha, having 
 a direct connection to Rinpoche's Younge lineage of which he is 
 the family lineage holder. The Terton who revealed this text is 
 Younge Migyur Dorje and it is the most widely used Dorje Drollo 
 practice in Tibet. In this uncommon version, Dorje Drollo is 
 visualized in union with Sengdong-ma and protected by Mahakala. 
 One must have Buddhist Refuge to participate, understand and 
 accept the Tsog feast, and be clear about Samaya within the 
 Vajrayana.

Cool. Sounds like a neat event. So do you have expectations
about it? Not expectations in the bad sense :-)...I'm just 
wondering what you are looking forward to.

It's a nice inviation. Those who are not used to the
way that Tibetan traditions do these things may find
it a bit odd. Speaking to the group as a whole, if 
you do, and have things to say about this invitation, 
I for one would love to hear them. You're an interesting 
and educated group of seekers, and it would be fascinating 
to hear how you react to this style of presentation. 

I was struck by its simple, unassuming honesty. It just
lays out what the event is about, and assumes a certain
level of shared belief, and proficiency in that shared 
belief, in the audience to whom it is addressed. 

I particularly like the list of prerequisites for the 
retreat -- that is a masterpiece of understatement and 
respect for one's peers. If you've been around the 
Tibetan Buddhist block, you nod your head and say,
Cool...sounds like it will be a nice group of people
attending. If you haven't, you realize that you have
more to learn. Nice gesture either way.

there's this big, shit-eating grin on his face and he's

Haha. Yeah, Drollo in TB is the most 
extremely wrathful form of Guru Rinpoche who immediately destroys all nondual 
conceptualization though theimmediate force of recognition of ones nature 
as the rishi? rather the Dharmata, AKA rigpa.

For this reason all ones 
conceptuality is raised like a beard by Gilette and then shaved very close as if 
by an array of insanely sharp razors.
