Lama Tsongkhapa-dagen firas den 25:e dagen i den 10:e månaden i den tibetanska kalendern, det vill säga den 10 december. Traditionellt görs omfattande ljusoffergåvor denna dag, och det finns mycket annat man kan göra för att fira och skapa meriter på denna speciella dag. Den 10 december är också årsdagen för när Dalai Lama mottog Nobels fredspris.

Som ett tecken på uppskattning till Lama Tsongkhapa och alla våra andra lärare bjuder vi in alla som vill att göra Guru Puja tillsammans. Guru Puja är en traditionell ritual eller praktik där vi läser och sjunger böner och gör många offergåvor.

Denna torsdag kommer firandet av Lama Tsongkhapa-dagen att ersätta vår vanliga meditationskväll med Venerable Michael.

Lama Tsongkhapa Day is celebrated on the 25th day of the 10th month on the Tibetan calendar, that is on the 10 of December. Traditionally extensive light offerings are made on this day, and there are many other practices one can do to celebrate, and create merit, on this special day. The 10 of December is also the anniversary of the Dalai Lama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize.

As token of appreciation to Lama Tsongkhapa and all our other teachers, everyone is invited to do the Guru puja. The Guru puja is a traditional ritual or practice where we recite and chant prayers and make many offerings together.

This Thursday the celebrations of Lama Tsongkhapa Day will replace our usual meditation evening with Venerable Michael.
