Heart Jewel Puja

August 11, 2015 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm

|Recurring Event (See all)

Free

If you enjoy meditating with others, chanted meditations are a great opportunity to engage in group meditation. These chanted meditations are also known in Sanskrit as “pujas”, meaning “offering”, or as “sadhanas”, which means “method for receiving attainments”.

Using ancient prayers translated into English, we receive the blessings, protection and guidance of the holy beings. We can make requests for ourselves or for others who need help or protection. These spiritual practices create a strong connection with the Buddhas, and help us purify our negativity and fill our mind with positive, healing energy.

Heart Jewel puja includes a period of silence for meditation on Lamrim.  By relying upon this practice, we can purify negativity, accumulate merit, and receive blessings.  In this way, we will naturally accomplish all the realizations of the stages of the path to Enlightenment and attain a very special Dharma wisdom.

All chanted prayers are free.
