Global Mani Retreat
May 17 – November 1, 2026
online
In honor of FPMT’s 50th anniversary, the entire FPMT
community is invited to join together in a
Global Mani Retreat,
helping to fulfill
Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s Vast Vision of hosting 100 Million Mani Retreats
around the world.
The 2026 Global Main Retreat will include online teachings
with High Lamas and group practice sessions to generate
merit, create the causes for Rinpoche’s swift return, and
support the long life of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
The teaching schedule is based on UTC: Coordinated Universal
Time.
Please check session times carefully and
convert them to your local time zone.
The program is scheduled to commence on the first day of
Saka Dawa month (Sunday, May 17, 2026), and conclude on the
final Buddha Day for this year, Lhabab Duchen (Sunday,
November 1, 2026).
This retreat will be something unprecedented for our global
FPMT family.
