Website of Dzogchen Buddha Path Europe

The purpose of this site is to increase positive thinking and happiness for all sentient beings. Here you will have access to the teachings of the Buddha and especially to the history, teachings and current activities of the Dzogchen Lineage of Buddhism.

In its broadest sense, Dzogchen Lineage refers to the limitless expanse and continuous wisdom of Vast Awakening, the Buddha Nature which is the natural enlightened lineage of wisdom and compassion that exists in the mind of every single sentient being.

Dzogchen Lineage also refers to the specific transmission of the Buddha’s teachings known in Tibetan as “Dzogchen,” or “Great Perfection.” This is a living lineage that exists in this world, having been passed from master to disciple from the time of the Buddha to the present.

Spring invites growth, and what better way to cultivate it than by planting seeds of Dharma in our minds? Join us for the 2024 European Dzogchen Buddha Path Spring Retreat and Internet Teaching Program, taught by Dharma teachers Excellent Bodhi Lama Rita and Heini Ilmarinen.

2024 Generosity event

Right before the retreat, spring into action with us!

Celebrate the new beginnings and generous hearts that empower DRCE to reach our shared, virtuous goals by joining the Generosity Event.

The original Dzogchen lineage was transmitted from Dharmakaya Buddha Samantabhadra to Sambhogakaya Buddha Vajrasattva to Nirmanakaya Buddha Shakyamuni.

The aim of the Dzogchen Buddha Path Foundation Europe is to fundraise and build a Dharma Retreat Center, a home for Dzogchen Buddhists, in Europe. This purpose will promote positivity on our planet. Global peace and harmony is our main goal.  

The Dzogchen Retreat Center Europe in the middle of beautiful nature is a wonderful place to foster a practice of love, compassion and wisdom.
