March 2015 Schedule for Tsok and
Sangwa Yeshe Drub Ch�d Orientation
by Lama Tsomo

  

According to the wish of Tulku Sang-ngag Rinpoche, the Third Annual Sangwa Yeshe Drub Ch�d will be jointly sponsored by Ewam Sang-ngag Ling and the Namchak Foundation, as the major annual gathering of Rinpoche's students in the West. In preparation for this event, an orientation to Drub Ch�d practice and to the Sangwa Yeshe sadhana is being offered in Montana and New Mexico.  

 

In Montana, this orientation will be offered by Lama Tsomo in conjunction with our two Tsok practices on Sunday, March 15 (Dakini Sangwa Yeshe tsok) and Sunday, March 29 (Guru Rinpoche tsok) from 10am-12pm in the Arlee Shrine Room at the Garden of One Thousand Buddhas. Please bring the customary offering of food, drink, flowers, or incense for the Tsok. 


On both Sundays, Tsok practice will be followed by a community lunch from 12-1pm. Please bring your own bagged lunch and something to share! From 1-3pm, Lama Tsomo will offer an explanation of the significance, meaning, and symbolism of the Sangha Yeshe sadhana, and of Drub Ch�d practice. Bring your Sangwa Yeshe long and short sadhana texts if you have them and a pencil and note paper.

 

To make a suggested donation of $10 for each orientation class, checks may be made to Ewam Drub Ch�d. These donations will be used solely to fund this jointly sponsored Drub Ch�d. To make a separate offering to the lama, checks may be made to the Namchak Foundation.
