PEOPLE OF COLOUR BIG WEEKEND RETREAT – ADHISTHANA
22 – 25 May | Suryagupta, Padmadhara & Amaragita

A powerful and nourishing four-day retreat, led by Order members of colour, set in the beautiful and peaceful grounds of Adhisthana. Now in its fourth year, this retreat offers a rare opportunity to come together in community with other people of colour, both nationally and internationally, to meditate, connect, and deepen our practice.


The Triratna Buddhist Community offers both online and in person events, from introductory sessions to practice days and residential retreats.  Keep an eye on our What’s On page, and see below for details on regular sessions and retreats.

Our people of colour spaces are an opportunity for all people of African, Asian and mixed heritage to come together for meditation, practice and community. Led by people of colour, for people of colour.  

You can also sign up to the PoC mailing list here.
