SUMMARY:Tara Prayers: Liberation from Sorrow
DESCRIPTION:Tara is a female Buddha\, a manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all the Buddhas. Her name means “Rescuer” because she rescues us from all outer and inner fears. Ultimately she rescues us from all suffering and guides us to full enlightenment. Like a mother she protects us from all internal and external dangers; she provides us with all the necessary conditions for our spiritual training\, and guides us and inspires us with her blessings as we progress along the spiritual path. These prayers include praises to the twenty-one manifestations of Tara. Because these are Sutra\, the actual words of Buddha\, they are particularly powerful and blessed.

SUMMARY:24 Hour Tara Chanting
DESCRIPTION:  \n \nJoin us in this special method of Tara chanting to wrap the entire world in requests to Living Buddha Tara. We will gather together to ask her to please take away the obstacles in this world and help everyone find the happy\, meaningful life they long for. Whether you engage in all six sessions or just one\, please join in. This will be so powerful in bringing about immediate practical benefit! \n“In general\, prayers made by an assembly of many practitioners are very powerful and cannot be compared to the prayers of one or two people. The scriptures give the analogy of a broom. If we try to clean a floor with a few bristles we shall make little progress\, but if we gather many bristles to make a broom we shall be successful.”\n– Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso \nPrayers: Liberation from Sorrow (ebook available here). \nSaturday\, August 8th\nNoon Session 1 \n4pm Session 2 \n8pm Session 3 \nSunday\, August 9th\nMidnight Session 4 \n4am Session 5 \n8am Session 6
