If our mind is pure and peaceful we will be happy, regardless of our external conditions. When it is unsettled, we will never find happiness, no matter how much we try to change our external conditions.
The method to make our mind pure and peaceful is to train in meditation. The Sunday meditation class covers methods to achieve this.

Tara Puja
2023-09-23 10:00 - 11:30
Female manifestation of Buddha’s Omniscient mind, Tara. During a Tara Puja we recite 21 Tara’s prayer.
The actions of all the buddhas have manifested in the aspect of Tara, to grant the wishes of us beings. Hence it is very important for us to pray to her. Because of her great compassion and love for all sentient beings, if we pray to her with great sincerity and faith, taking refuge in and relying on her completely, she can definitely help eliminate hindrances and bring success in spreading the pure teachings of the Buddha.
Join us if you are a practitioner or not. All welcome!
10am at the Gompa with our teacher Geshe-la.

Guru Puja with Tsog
2023-08-26 19:00 - 20:30
Guru puja (Lama Chöpa) is a practice of making offerings and requests to all the Buddhas and holy beings, but especially the root guru, who, according to the teachings, is the root of the path to liberation. Traditionally we do offerings to the Sangha. If you wish to dedicate the puja to the spiritual teachers or loved ones in need of support and prayers, please do let us know. We practice Guru Puja every month and is open to public.
Please bring a food offering – preferably something baked / fruit / something avoiding plastic. Thank you!
