Our regular Tuesday prayer coincides with Halloween. Since we have a full moon next week on Friday, we will move the prayer to that day and do a Full Tara prayer. It will take place Friday Nov 3 at 7PM.
For the Full Tara prayer, please
Saturday October 28th 2017 10 am – 12 pm
The teaching will loosely follow this format, but Geshe la may adjust as needed:
10 AM – Instruction
10:45 AM – Practice
Break
11 AM – Q/A and further instruction
11:45 AM – More practice as time permits
This session will open up discussion for any questions from those who attended the first session on September 23, 2017. It is suitable for beginners as well as those who have participated before and would like to review the techniques. You are welcome to join if you missed the last session.
The previous session primarily covered the benefits of meditation, setting the proper motivation, and the basic body positioning. Geshe la will delve further and build on top of this foundation.
The usual Tuesday prayer is cancelled this week, as we have a full moon. The prayer will also be dedicated to our sangha member, Christine Louie, as it coincides with the 49th day after her passing. It will take place Thursday Oct. 5th at 7PM.
You are invited to bring an offering of flowers, fruit or cookies for the altar.
Our events are open to the public and free of charge.
Events are open to attend in-person, and are often cast on Zoom.
Our resident teacher is available for private consultation by appointment.

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.
