Special Prayers to Celebrate Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s Birthday
June 3, 2019 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm
We dedicate this heart practice of Offering to the Spiritual Guide to the continued good health and long life of our kind Spiritual Guide, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, for his birthday. Everyone is welcome and invited to join us for this beautiful prayer practice.
Offering 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.
May all living beings have the good fortune to meet you, Venerable Geshe-la. Happy Birthday!
