Dear Dharma Friends,
Practices this week are on a slightly different schedule. Our Wednesday evening yidam practice is Green Tara. Saturday the 24th and Sunday the 25th will both be Chenrezig / Mani practice, with Tsok included on Sunday only. The Saturday and Sunday Chenrezig practices coincide with the Annual Mani Drubchen at Rinchen Ling Monastery.
Looking ahead to 2023, on January 9th Lama Kalsang will travel to Chicago for an Achi Chokyi Drolma Fulfillment Ritual with H.E. Tritsab Rinpoche, then to Lama Sonam’s center in Boston on the 17th. On January 23rd he will depart for Nepal for approximately 6 weeks.
While Lama Kalsang is away, our Wednesday yidam practice will be on hiatus, and Sunday practice will not include Achi Chokyi Drolma.
Please note: the CDC has listed our community transmission level as low, and masks are optional for our in person practices at the center. We do ask that only fully vaccinated people come in to the center. We will be running the air purifier in the common area. If you are not feeling well, please join us online.
May the illumination of wisdom teachings shine through all obscurations of our mind, and may our practices be beneficial to all beings!
