Hello,

We made an error with the date of the Festival of Lights. It will actually take place Tuesday Dec 12 at 7 p.m. to ~9 p.m., replacing the regular prayer. This is the anniversary of Tsongkhapa’s death. It will be celebrated with a Tsog offering.

You may bring offerings on this day (there are no restrictions).

We celebrate the parinirvana and enlightenment of Je Tsongkhapa (1357-1419).
All merit (positive potential) accumulated on this day is multiplied 100,000 times.
