Please join Geshe Lobsang and Geshe Namgyal for Guru Yoga Tsok via Webinar at 7:00pm May 6

The Tsok offering puja is a traditional Tibetan Buddhist ceremony involving offerings of flowers, food, and drink to the Buddhas, the Bodhisattvas, and our spiritual Gurus in conjunction with prayers, chanting, and meditation. During the ceremony, we accumulate merit, purify negativity, and give and receive blessings.

LoGyonMa practice with Geshe Namgyal and Geshe Lobsang, May 2, 11:30am MST

The world is deeply affected by the evolving Covid-19 pandemic. India is now particularly hard hit with confusion, sickness and death as is Brazil. The practice of LoGyonMa, Goddess Parnashvari, can contribute to turning the tide on this deadly virus. The spiritual energy of LoGyonMa helps transform disastrous states. The recitation of the LoGyonMa practice helps stop physical, mental, spiritual, and karmic obstacles. Geshe Namgyal and Geshe Lobsang will recite the Sadhana on Facebook Live. If you would like to join with Emaho’s monks, you can download the practice.

May the practice of LoGyonMa help halt the virus that is gripping our planet, causing unspeakable suffering. We dedicate our practice of LoGyonMa to the compassionate and brave people who help on the front lines of health care and the myriad of people with jobs helping to eradicate and lead us out of this disquiet and uncertainty.

Mountain Standard Time

By request, ZaChoeje Rinpoche has graciously agreed to bestow the White Tara Empowerment. Rinpoche will instruct us on how to best practice the White Tara, known as the Wish-fulfilling Wheel (Drolkar Yishin Khorlo).

The empowerment ceremony is a Buddhist tradition handed down from master to student, going back in an unbroken lineage to the historical Shakyamuni Buddha. Receiving the White Tara transmission permits us to engage in the White Tara practice, benefitting ourselves and other sentient beings with spiritual blessings and other enrichments.

Tashi Delek from the Za PANGTHANG nuns in Tehor, Tibet.

It’s common for the Tehor region to experience internet and primary power outages. We are waiting to receive new video updates.  We do know the weather in Tehor is unusually warm for this time of year.  The ground has softened, and work resumes on the nunnery.  As travel conditions become more favourable, volunteers from surrounding communities have been steadily arriving to help.  

In their last email, the nuns sent their gratitude and told us they include each of us in their daily prayers. 

To date, friends, supporters, well wishes and Emaho Sangha members have donated $11,769.07 to the nunnery project.  Each donation has been doubled for a total of $23,538.14.  We still have 7 weeks to go where every cent donated will be doubled.  100% of your donations will be given to the nuns on your behalf. 

The nunnery project is dear to many of us.  While we help our Tibetan spiritual sisters by supporting their ability to get building materials, we are strengthening our connection to them, and the people of Tehor, Tibet. To those who have donated, Emaho!  To those who will donate Emaho!  Donating towards this project is a rare opportunity indeed.  Om mani padme hum.
