To commemorate the 600th anniversary of Gaden Ngamcho (Anniversary of Lama Tsongkhapa’s Parinirvana), we are pleased to offer the opportunity for Gompa member-supporters to send offerings and dedications to Sera Mey monastery, Bylakuppe, Karnataka, India, in support of the ‘Recitation of the Essence of True Eloquence’ (Drang Nge Lekshe Nyingpo) to be performed on December 10th, 2020. You are cordially invited to participate.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is no webcast for this event – however, Gompa member-supporters can register for the event and send offerings, together with dedications, at any time up until December 10th, 2020.
The Event:
Gaden Ngamcho, literally ‘Gaden Offering of the Twenty-Fifth Day’ or Lama Tsongkhapa Day, is a celebration of the anniversary of Lama Tsongkhapa’s parinirvana. It is celebrated on the 25th day of the 10th month of the Tibetan calendar. Practicing purification and making aspirational prayers on this special occasion is said to be a powerful way of purifying our negative karma, reviving broken commitments, and accumulating merit.
(These prayers are being performed strictly in accordance with the social distancing regulations and safety precautions as set down by government and the health ministry.)
