Troma Nakmo Retreat
May 9 - 17, 2026
Copperopolis, CA and Online
Troma Nakmo Chöd
Walking the Path of Fierce Compassion:
We have an ongoing group of practitioners who are doing their preliminary practice and studying the Medium-Length Troma Sadhana with Loppon Yudron, and who are supporting each other.
This established group meets once a week online.
If there is interest, we will offer Troma Ngondro teachings and peer support again this summer, 2026. This will be a group for people who want to practice Troma ngondro daily over a period of years and be part of an online community. Troma ngondro is not a beginner's practice. It is also a little more difficult to accomplish in working life than the Dudjom Tersar or Khandro Thukthik Ngondros. Yet, certain people have a connection to it and are highly motivated to practice it.
You can make an appointment for a Dharma Consultation with Loppon Yudron below to discuss whether it is right for you at this time.

About Loppon Yudron Wangmo
Founder and Director
Yudron Wangmo began studying and practicing Tibetan Buddhism in the early 1990's, balancing in-depth practice and service to her Tibetan teachers with her work as a nurse, nurse practitioner, and healer.
Later, she completed lengthy meditation retreats, including the traditional three-year three-month group retreat in California under the guidance of Lama Tharchin Rinpoche. Her main mentors have been Lama Tharchin Rinpoche, Lama Pema Dorje Rinpoche, and Adzom Paylo Rinpoche.
She is the author of Clearing the Way to Awakening, Excavating Pema Ozer, and the Buddha of Lightning Peak. Her Substack is here.
Lama Pema Dorje Rinpoche officially authorized her to teach in 2017. Her main teaching focus is the Dudjom Tersar tradition, including the foundation practices, deity practices, chod, offering practices, and tsok. She also teaches Present Clear Wakefulness meditation for the interested public.
