The Avalokiteshvara Fire Puja :
The Avalokiteshvara Fire Puja :
Liberating oneself from all negative karma through offering of nourishment through scent & fire and dedication to the harm-causing spirits and goblins.
Lead by Lama Drimed Lodro
Sponsor by Shensem Tsogpa Tibetan Culture Center
Lama Drimed will lead us in the practice of this powerful Avalokiteshvara Fire Puja as an auspicious start for year 2006. This sadhana was composed by the All-Knowing Mipham Rinpoche out of his fervent aspiration to liberate sentient beings. He was inspired by a dream and immediately wrote down the insightful wisdom from the Sugatas and Bodhisattvas who had shown us the way to rid ourselves of karmic and demonic obstructions, and ultimately lead us towards realization. Especially at a time like this, when global epidemics such as AIDS, SARS, or the most recent Bird Flu are increasingly threaten our well-being, this practice is precisely the antidote to our sufferings.
Time: January 8th, 2006 Sunday
2-5 p.m. (potluck from 5-7 p.m., followed by the ongoing Tibetan Class from 7-9 p.m.)
January 21st, 2006 Saturday 7~9 p.m. Tibetan Class
