Sakyong and Family, Shambhala News ServiceReminder of Healing and Enriching Practices
Next week the Sakyong will be performing two pujas, or intensive practices. This is an opportunity to request the Sakyong to help friends, loved ones, or ourselves through these practices. The pujas will be Medicine Buddha April 8th, for health, healing, and recovery from illness, and Dorje Tsegyal April 9, to enrich, increase, and strengthen the lungta and brilliance of activities in the world.If we wish ourselves or a friend to be included, it is traditional to offer their name along with an offering to the teacher. These names are read to the Sakyong as part of the puja. We can include a short description of the situation surrounding the request. Both the names and descriptions are kept confidential and burned at the conclusion of the puja. The Sakyong has requested that those who want to connect with the pujas offer yellow and red flowers on the days of the practice. The Sakyong plans to send a gift to those who have requested specific practice during the pujas.
For more information please follow this link. To make an offering and request the Sakyong to include someone in his practice, please follow this link. In the comments field, please type the name of the person you would like to include.
