Over the years POL has hosted spiritual retreats of all traditions including Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Sufi, Jewish, Taoist, and others. We also host yoga, meditation, chi gong, women’s spiritual gatherings and other New Age events. Here is what a few have had to say:

Whether a large public group or an intimate private gathering, we have always enjoyed our retreats at Pema Osel Ling. The atmosphere of both the beautiful natural landscape and the exquisite awareness imagery support and enhance our practice. The staff treats us like family, and their genuine interest in our welfare is always a tangible part of any event there.

Our experience at Pema Osel Ling has been one of being fully supported in a beautiful, sacred environment. Sitting in the gompa in the presence of the majestic Padma Sambhava, watching birds fly in and out and seeing the deer graze in the meadow, brought us great joy and helped deepen our practice. We look forward to many years of returning to Pema Osel Ling to meditate in the peace of the redwoods.

The land at Pema Osel Ling was truly conducive to our Vipassana retreat. The natural silence and sacred atmosphere, as well as the kind staff, were greatly appreciated by all. I recommend Pema Osel Ling highly to any Buddhist organization.
