There is a regular summer retreat and a Three Year Retreat facility for the monks and yogis of Tashi Gomang. The meditators here are very sincere in their practices, but are very poor, so the challenges they face are great. During the great upheaval in 1959, all monasteries were destroyed. Recently, however, they have started to rebuild.
