The XVII Annual Phowa Course in Bodhgaya will be held January 14-23, 2012.

Bodhi Tree at the Mahabodhi Stupa in Bodhgaya

Please make your hotel and travel arrangements early as these dates follow immediately after the Kalachakra initiation with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, so Bodhgaya will be unusually full of pilgrims in January.  The 2012 schedule has not been set.
