Event Details
Join us on Thursday, June 5, 4 PM MT to offer Tsok!
We will practice the Shower of Blessings feast offering (Tib. tsok) for the tenth day of the fifth lunar month which falls this year on Thursday, June 5, 2025.
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.
5th month: The Tirthikas, extreme philosophers, try to damage the Dharma in South India; but through his great power, Guru Rinpoche defeats them all along with their gods and protectors. Raising the banner of victory of the Dharma, he is known as Guru Sangge Dradog, "the Lion's Roar 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.
Please join us early to set up if you're able to help.
