Georgie's 3 Month Retreat

Hello, my name is Georgie and welcome to my go fund me page! I have created this platform to help raise money towards the cost of my 3-month retreat in India starting July 2023!

My journey first started on a somewhat simple trip to India in 2019. Unexpectedly I found myself in my first 10-day silent retreat at the foothills of the Himalayas, and I instantly fell in love with the teachings and the practice. This has led me to ditch the full-time nursing to part-time study and volunteering.

Over the few years of living at Chenrezig Institute, I have been able to immerse myself in Buddhist Philosophy and contribute to the growing community of students following and practicing Tibetan Buddhism here in Australia.

Very soon, I will be packing my bags and heading off to India where I will be joining a group of 18 people who will be participating in this silent retreat alongside me. Without a doubt, it will be a life-changing experience. A full 94 days with almost no talking, no cellphone, no laptop and no phone calls (sorry Mum and Dad!)

With much love and gratitude I welcome you to contribute as little as $5 towards the funding of this wonderful spiritual adventure. This money will be used as a offering to the teachers and staff at Tushita Retreat centre, flights, accommodation and visa expenses. In return I will dedicate the practice for you or anyone you wish to pray for.

Thank you so much for your support!

Big Love,

Georgie
