THE DIAMOND WAY TRANSMISSION
WITH GESHE MICHAEL ROACH
October 7–11, 2026
For many years, students around the world have asked Geshe Michael Roach to offer a direct transmission of the Diamond Way teachings as he has personally experienced and practiced them.
This October, Geshe Michael will offer a special live transmission event based on a lifetime of study, retreat, practice, and direct experience.
At the center of this transmission is the living experience of emptiness — not only the technical understanding preserved in the ancient texts, but the personal journey of how to prepare for it, recognize it, and integrate it into your life.
As Geshe Michael explains in the video below, this transmission comes from decades of practicing and translating the deepest teachings of the Diamond Way tradition. This transmission is intended for sincere students who wish to deepen their practice and participate in the unfolding of the V Houses global community.
A Rare Opportunity to Receive Direct Transmission
Watch the Invitation Video
The live transmission will take place October 7–11, 2026 at Dragonshead, near Geshe Michael’s home, in Rimrock, Arizona.
Because the physical venue only holds a limited number of people, V Houses branches around the world will organize local gathering locations where students can participate together.
These branch locations will allow sincere students everywhere to receive the teachings, practice together, and participate in the transmission experience as a global community, direct from Geshe Michael.
It will be a requirement that you attend at one of the locations around the world; no individual participation online will happen this time. More information of locations will be coming soon!
Request Transmission
If you feel called to receive this Diamond Way transmission, your first step is to complete the Request for Transmission form.
Due June 15, 2026
Geshe Michael will review all requests, and then decide who will receive an invitation to come to Dragonshead. Unfortunately, we have limited spaces available; yet the transmission will be held live around the world in official branch locations, and will have equal importance and effectiveness whether you are in Dragonshead or any other location. It will truly be a worldwide event.
Become a V Houses Branch Organizer
To make this transmission available around the world, V Houses is inviting experienced and committed students to organize local branch gathering spaces.
As a branch organizer, you may help:
Host a local viewing and practice location with small or large groups
Coordinate students in your city or region or country
Support participants during the transmission event, linking back to the event live at Dragonshead and offering the full transmission
If you feel inspired to help organize a branch location, please complete the organizer application below. We will be providing all the training necessary to host an event, what is needed for the transmission as well as guidance on how to organize the community. These events will not be run or hosted by V Houses teachers; Geshe Michael stressed that he is the only one who will give this transmission, and he will give it on the same day at the same time to everyone. There will be no other teachers in this transmission event: everyone will receive the transmission direct from him.
