Warrior Syllables and The Five Wisdoms
with Marcy Vaughn
November 22-23, 2025
The five Warrior Syllable practice describes a clear path from openness to
action. Please join Marcy in a meditation retreat to explore our inherent
capacity to transform confusion into wisdom and to awaken the inspiration
to bring benefit to oneself and to others through our actions.
“The reason these seed syllables are called warriors is because they are powerful and indestructible. They are associated with the Five Wisdoms—and it is wisdom that is able to penetrate fear and ignorance to cut the roots of samsara.” —Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Retreat teachings and practices will be taught in English.
Live translation will be available in Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian.
Written translations will be available in Spanish, Portuguese, and Russian.
