New News:

                      

His Holiness Ngawang Tenzin Rinpoche visited Boulder, CO and other centers around the US during October -December 2007.  His Holiness gave teachings about Tibetan Buddhism and offered commentaries on refuge, Bodhichitta, the Four Noble Truths, Guru Yoga, and following the path of Buddhism.  His Holiness gave several different empowerments and a fire ceremony for purification, clearance of obstacles and showering of blessings.  There was also a first time ceremony, "Compassion Ceremony for Peace and Harmony", that His Holiness presided over.  The ceremony was open to everyone.  The purpose for the ceremony was to chant as many Buddha of Compassion mantras as possible. The mantra helps to engender harmony, allay violence, and increase compassion, love and equanimity.  Over 869,000 mantras were chanted during this ceremony.

(NW corner of Pike Road and HWY 287 Longmont, CO

July 30, 2007-August 5, 2007

              The Longmont Buddhist Temple and  Drukpa Mila Center joined together to sponsor the construction of a Buddha of Compassion sand mandala. Everyone from the public was invited to come and see the sand mandala.  Several hundred people visited the Longmont Buddhist Temple.  The sand mandala was constructed by hand. Many people expressed feelings of peace and compassion watching the construction of a sand mandala. The sand mandala was dismantled and then dispersed at the Kanemoto Park in Longmont.  After the dismantling, there was a potluck picnic with both centers.

 

May all sentient beings be blessed and protected in the Dharma during the Year of the Fire Pig.
