SUMMARY:Commemoration of Buddha's Joyful Day
DESCRIPTION:Unvaccinated Guests Must Wear Masks\nThe observance of Buddha’s Joyful Day on the full moon day of the seventh lunar month is based on the story of Maudgalyayana\, a disciple of the Buddha\, who discovered through his meditative powers that his mother had been reborn as a hungry ghost. Distressed\, he approached the Buddha for help\, who then advised him to make offerings to the Sangha\, as the merit from doing so would help relieve the suffering of his mother and other beings in the lower realms. Buddha’s Joyful Day is observed by making offerings of necessities to monastics\, reciting sūtras and performing acts of generosity. The merit from these deeds is dedicated to all beings\, especially to relieve the suffering of the deceased. \nPlease join us as we make prayers and offerings for our parents\, ancestors\, and the deceased through a special recitation of the Amitabha sadhana with tsok offerings\, a fire puja for the deceased\, and aspiration prayers for the well being of us and all other beings\, especially those to whom we dedicate the practice by name\, both living and deceased. \nThe practice entitled ‘Jangchok’ will be included within the chanting of the Amitabha sadhana.  Jangchok is done for the benefit of the recently deceased to achieve liberation.  For persons who may have passed away a long time ago the Jangchok practice will still bring great blessings to the deceased and create the causes and conditions for the liberation of the person.  For the living\, it is said that once their karmic debtors are liberated through this practice\, the person will have less obstacles.  For all beings\, this practice will help to create favorable conditions and enhance their well-being. \nIt is said that\, “no matter how long ago your deceased dear ones or relatives have passed away\, it is still very vital to make prayers and offerings for them to increase their merit.” \nDuring the chanting of the Long Amitabha and Jangchok sadhanas all the names of the deceased will be blessed and burned to symbolize purification of their defilements\, obscurities and negative karma by the fire of wisdom\, ripening their merit to be reborn in Amitabha’s pureland of Dewachen. Also included will be a dedication of merit to all sponsors and their designated names for blessing.  As it is taught in the Ullambana Sūtra\, the merit of making these offerings will bring excellent health\, long life\, removal of obstacles from the donor’s dharma practice and work\, and rebirth of the deceased in Dewachen.  The merit will also be dedicated to world peace and the liberation of all sentient beings.  May the Dharma continue to flourish. \n  \nChanting Schedule: \n10:00 am | Chanting of Long Amitabha Sadhana\n1:30 pm | Continuation of chanting of Long Amitabha Sadhana with Tsok\, Jangchok Sadhana\, followed by Sür (special fire offering ceremony) \nFor information on how to join us via ZOOM\, please click here.  \n\nYou may donate any amount and provide us with the names for dedication (both living and deceased).  To make these dedications\, download the Amitabha Sadhana Dedication Form in Chinese and English. \n\nAs of July 1 we welcome visitors to join us for lunch in the Maitreya dining room\, and ask that you let us know in advance by emailing reservations@kagyu.com. We regret that the dining room will not be open for other meals at this time. \nOvernight accommodations will also be available for fully vaccinated guests only.

SUMMARY:Study Group on Awakening the Sleeping Buddha
DESCRIPTION:Due to the risks of covid and its variants\, Monday\, Tuesday\, Wednesday and Thursday night classes will continue on Zoom only. To join us via Zoom please click here. \n  \nLed by Lamas Depa and Lhadrun\, we will be exploring in depth Awakening the Sleeping Buddha written by the Twelfth Tai Situpa\, Pema Donyo Nyinche. In this book\, HE Tai Situ Rinpoche lucidly presents and explains very basic and important principles such as Buddha Nature\, Bodhichitta\, Reincarnation\, Karma and Emptiness. In this class\, which includes study\, discussion and meditation\, we will investigate these principles deeply\, and also draw from the works of other Buddhist masters for further elucidation. \n  \nGuru Vajradhara Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa\, The Twelth Tai Situpa\, is a great meditation master\, scholar\, artist\, and is the abbot of Sherab Ling Monastery in northern India\, as well as the head of our own monastery\, Palpung Thupten Choling. \n  \nWe are very much looking forward to this new class and students of all levels are welcome to join any Tuesday. There are no prerequisites and no attendance requirement.
