SUMMARY:2021 Year-End Chanting Practices
DESCRIPTION:Because of heightened covid rates in the area\, the monastery and these events are closed to the public. To join us via Zoom please click here. \nThe PTC Sangha will be chanting practices for averting obstacles\, sickness\, war\, and disasters\, bringing all auspicious conditions for the coming year. \nDecember 29 – 31\, Wednesday – Friday (9:00 am) | Druptab\, the extended version of the Six-Armed Chadrupa practice.  \nThese extended Mahakala prayers are performed to clear away obstacles. \nDecember 31\, Friday (2:00 pm) | Sür\, Evening Fire Offering Ceremony\nSür (evening fire offering ceremony) is an offering to the 4 guests: the Buddhas & Bodhisattvas; Protectors; sentient beings; and those with whom we have karmic debts. It averts obstacles and sickness and is dedicated to those who are dying\, beings in the Bardo\, and to beings with whom we have karmic debts. \n\nJanuary 1\, Saturday (10:00 am) | Sang\, Morning Fire Offering Ceremony\nSang is a special morning purification fire ceremony. It is an offering to all worldly gods and the 4 guests: Buddhas & Bodhisattvas; Protectors; sentient beings; and those with whom we have karmic debts. This practice pacifies war\, encourages peace and averts sickness. It also creates merit and concludes the year-end chanting by purifying any remaining obstacles. \nAlthough the monastery is closed to the public\, there are many ways to share in the merit of these activities through sponsoring meals\, fire offering ceremonies\, or the tea served during the chanting. Be sure to include a prayer with your donation which will be read aloud to the assembly. \nYou may also simply mail your tax-deductible contribution to:\nPalpung Thubten Chöling\nAttn: Office\n245 Sheafe Road\, Wappingers Falls\, NY 12590. \nPlease make checks payable to Palpung Thubten Choling or PTC.
