July 2, Saturday | Gya Shi, The Practice of the Four Hundred Offerings
Gya Shi is a practice involving four hundred offerings – 100 tsa-tsas, 100 butterlamps, 100 tormas, 100 chambu (effigies) – that is done as a means to purify obstacles created by the four maras (mental afflictions, attachment to happiness, clinging to the five skandhas, death).
July 3, Sunday | Sherab Nyingpo, a practice based on the Heart Sutra
Sherab Nyingpo is an obstacle-averting practice that dispels unfavorable circumstances and promotes good conditions. The Heart Sutra is recited repeatedly as a means to purify obstacles created by the four maras (mental afflictions, attachment to happiness, clinging to the five skandhas, death). The practice invokes the blessings of Prajnaparamita, the Mother of all Buddhas.

July 10, Sunday (following Drolma Yuldok chanting) | Sür, Evening Fire Offering Ceremony
Sür (an evening fire offering ceremony) is an offering to the four guests: the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the Protector deities, sentient beings, and those with whom we have karmic debts. It averts obstacles and sickness and is dedicated to those who are dying, to beings in the Bardo, and to beings with whom we have karmic debts.
