Event Details
We will practice the Shower of Blessings feast offering (Tib. tsok) for the tenth day of the sixth lunar month which falls this year on Saturday, September 26. The tsok (feast offering) practice is offered to celebrate each tenth day, Guru Rinpoche Day, in every lunar month.
Each Guru Rinpoche day commemorates a particular episode from Padmasambhava's life as support to practitioners who wish to deepen their relationship with him, the buddha of our troubled age.
The eighth month: "The non-Buddhists attempt to poison the Guru, but he transforms the poison into amrita (nectar). He becomes luminous and inspires faith in the non-Buddhists. He is known as Guru Nyima Ozer, 'the Sun-Ray Guru'."
Excerpt extracted from Tibetan Astrology, in which Phillipe Cornu summarizes Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche's explanation of each month's tenth day. Read more here.
H.E. Chhoje Tulku Rinpoche will lead us in tsok practice online beginning at 10:00 a.m. and ending around 12:30 p.m. MDT. Visit our complementary livestream teachings page here to join us online. Or, click this link to watch with us directly via PMC's YouTube channel.
Please RSVP through by clicking below if you intend to join us.
We will send out digital versions of the Shower of Blessings liturgy and the various introductory and dedication prayers to the email address you submit with your RSVP.
It would also be good to procure at least the "essentials" for the feast offering (bread, cheese, meat, yogurt, and alcohol) and arrange the items in a pleasing way during the practice just like we do when we practice together at the center. You can also offer anything that looks and tastes pleasing to you!
If you would like to make a donation to support this practice at PMC, please donate online by clicking the button below, or send checks to "PMC" at PO Box 3734, Boulder, CO 80307 and email treasurer@pmctr.org with your pledged donation amount no later than Wednesday, September 26.
