December Schedule

Published

on

We will have a break from the regular schedule mid-December. There will be no Dharma teachings, meditation and prayer sessions from Sunday December 15th through to the New Year. The regular schedule will resume with Dharma teachings on Sunday January 5th 2019. Please refer to the calendar for up-to-date scheduling information.

Our Sunday teachings will continue the topic of the 12 links of dependent origination during December, and we will continue where we left off after the break.

We will also have a Full Tara Prayer during the full moon on Dec. 11th 7:00-8:30 pm.

      Hi Gana,

      We are still working out scheduling details for the year. In past years this has occurred in April, but we expect this to be in the summer for 2020.

      Please keep an eye out for announcements in our email newsletter and/or the main page on this website.

  • Tibetan word of the day: གཞི་གྲུབ་

    གཞི་གྲུབ་

    Established basis

    Spelling (jorlok; Tib. སྦྱོར་ཀློག་) and pronunciation:
    གཞི་ – ga-o zha gigu zhi
    གྲུབ་ – ga ra-tak dra zhabkyu dru ba drub
    zhi drub

    From class notes:

    “First, what must be understood is this: the established basis (Tib. གཞི་གྲུབ་ gzhi grub), object of knowledge (Tib. ཤེས་བྱ་ shes bya), existence (Tib. ཡོད་པ་ yod pa), and phenomena (Tib. ཆོས་ chos) are all of one meaning.

    The meaning of an established basis is that which is established by valid cognition (Skt. pramāṇa).”

    Geshe la encourages us to learn Tibetan to help gain deeper
    understanding of the teachings, and gain access to prayers and rituals that have not been translated. The Tibetan word of the day is offered to give regular exposure to Tibetan reading and vocabulary.
