Guru Rinpoche Empowerment and Refuge and Bodhichitta vow, with Lama Tsering
To start the year with the right motivation, on January 1, 2025, at 10 am (UTC-3), Lama Tsering will grant Guru Rinpoche Empowerment and the vows of Refuge and Bodhichitta.
In the vow of Refuge, the person formally commits to following the Buddha's teachings, taking refuge in the Three Jewels (the Buddha, the Dharma and the Sangha). In the Bodhichitta vow, the commitment is made to work for the benefit of all beings and to strive to minimize their suffering.
In making this commitment, the practitioner makes a firm decision to train their own mind, avoiding negativity and striving to practice virtue until all beings reach enlightenment.
Guru Rinpoche's empowerment, as a blessing at the beginning of the year, allows us to cultivate, through the practice of Guru Yoga, the presence of the enlightened and awakened mind that permeates everything.
Those who have already received the empowerment and taken these vows previously are invited to renew them.
In person only.
No prerequisites.
Please confirm your presence to help with our organization.
This is a voluntary offering event.
The Mandala Shop will be open and Katags will be sold.
