  General
This is the default category
Date: Friday, July 13, 2012 - 7:00 pm
Duration: 1 Hour

RefugeTreeAWTwice a month, based on the lunar calendar, the practice of Tsog Offering or Guru Puja is done. It is a commitment for those practicing tantra to restore and reaffirm their vows and pledges. However, everyone is welcome to attend the Guru Puja offerings to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, accumulating the positive energy needed to progress along the spiritual path.

Lama is the Tibetan word for Guru, and Chopa is offering. Participants can bring flowers and candles as offerings. The ritual and offering takes approximately one hour. If you have a bell and dorje, you are welcome to bring them and participate in the ritual.
