SUMMARY:Heart Jewel Prayers w/ Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Join us In Person \nIf 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; and the prayers we recite are sadhanas\, meaning methods for receiving attainments. \nOur prayers are in English. We request 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. \nHeart Jewel puja includes a period of silence for meditation. 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. \nAll chanted prayers are free.

SUMMARY:Dharmachakra Day: Offering to the Spiritual Guide Prayers
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nEveryone is welcome to join us for this beautiful prayer practice\, celebrating Buddha’s first turning of the Wheel of Dharma (Dharmachakra Day) and the birthday of our beloved Spiritual Guide\, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. \nOffering to the Spiritual Guide is a special Guru yoga of Je Tsongkhapa in conjunction with Highest Yoga Tantra. It was compiled by the first Panchen Lama\, Losang Chökyi Gyaltsän\, as a preliminary practice for Vajrayana Mahamudra. The main practice is relying upon the Spiritual Guide\, but it also includes all the essential practices of the stages of the path (Lamrim) and training the mind (Lojong)\, as well as both the generation stage and completion stage of Highest Yoga Tantra. \nWe have prayer booklets in English for use during the practice. It is traditional to bring a small offering of food or drink for this practice.

SUMMARY:Tara Prayers
DESCRIPTION:This practice is offered on the 8th of every month. See calendar for day and time. \nThe Tara Puja Liberation from Sorrow includes a special prayer composed by Buddha\, “Praises to the Twenty-one Taras”. Tara is a manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all Buddhas. Each of the twenty-one distinct Taras is a manifestation of the principal Green Tara\, also known as “Mother of the Conquerors.” \nMother\nAs children we turn to our mother for help and guidance. She protects us from immediate dangers\, provides us with all our temporal needs\, and guides and encourages us in our learning and personal development. In the same way\, during our spiritual growth\, we need to turn to our Holy Mother\, Tara\, for refuge. She protects us from all internal and external dangers\, 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. \nRescuer\n“Tara” means “Rescuer.” She is so called because she rescues us from the eight outer fears of lions\, elephants\, fire\, snakes\, thieves\, water\, bondage and evil spirits; and from the eight corresponding inner fears of pride\, ignorance\, anger\, jealousy\, wrong views\, attachment\, miserliness and deluded doubts. Temporarily\, Tara saves us from the dangers of rebirth in the three lower realms and ultimately saves us from the dangers of samsara and solitary peace. \nProtector\nIf we rely upon Mother Tara sincerely and with strong faith\, she will protect us from all obstacles and fulfill all our wishes. Since she is a wisdom Buddha\, and since she is a manifestation of the completely purified wind element\, Tara is able to help us very quickly. If we recite the twenty-one verses of praise we shall receive inconceivable benefits. These praises are very powerful because they are Sutra\, the actual words of Buddha. It is good to recite them as often as we can. \nAll chanted prayer practices are free of charge\, but donations are always welcome!

SUMMARY:Powa Prayers
DESCRIPTION:  \nThrough practicing transference of consciousness — known as ‘powa’ — with faith\, compassion\, and concentration we can transfer the consciousness of those recently deceased to a higher rebirth or to the Pure Land of a Buddha. The Powa Ceremony can be done either by a group of practitioners or individually on behalf of one or more deceased persons\, or countless deceased beings. By engaging in this practice we also create a great collection of virtue\, which will also lead us into the pathway to a Buddha’s Pure Land. \nAll chanted prayers are free.

SUMMARY:Offering to the Spiritual Guide Prayers
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nEveryone is welcome to join us for this beautiful prayer practice. \nOffering to the Spiritual Guide is a special Guru yoga of Je Tsongkhapa in conjunction with Highest Yoga Tantra. It was compiled by the first Panchen Lama\, Losang Chökyi Gyaltsän\, as a preliminary practice for Vajrayana Mahamudra. The main practice is relying upon the Spiritual Guide\, but it also includes all the essential practices of the stages of the path (Lamrim) and training the mind (Lojong)\, as well as both the generation stage and completion stage of Highest Yoga Tantra. \nThis puja (prayer practice) normally takes place on or near the 10th & 25th of the month.
