The Sacred Path program continues to deal with bringing the principles of warriorship and the practice of mindfulness-awareness into daily life. In particular, it is designed to nurture the student's natural ability to experience the world as sacred and their aspiration to create an enlightened society.

Windhorse

Participants study the  terma text, The Letter of the Black Ashe, which gives the instruction for "raising windhorse." The practice of windhorse opens the heart and refreshes one's confidence. It is a way to bring about skillful and heartfelt social engagement, enabling the warrior to go forward in the midst of whatever challenges occur.

Prerequisites:

Completion of Levels I-V, the Everyday Life Series, and the Great Eastern Sun weekend retreat are required. Completion of Rigden Weekend and the Basic Goodness Series are encouraged.
