At Kadampa Centers worldwide, the eighth of the month is Tara Day. This month due to the Tara empowerment on the 8th in Aldergrove, we are doing our usual practice in Vancouver on the 9th.

Tara is a female Buddha, whose name means “Rescuer.” She is the embodiment of swift compassion. If we rely upon Tara sincerely and with strong faith, she will protect us from all obstacles and fulfill all our wishes.

Everyone is welcome and invited to join us for Tara’s chanted prayer practice, Liberation from Sorrow.

Chanted Prayers, or pujas, are an important component of training in a spiritual life and are held at our Centre in Vancouver throughout the week. They help us to still our mind, connect with enlightened beings, and receive blessings.

Prayer booklets are available in the meditation room and can also be purchased in our bookstore. If you would like to make a monetary tsog offering you can do so by making a donation.

These prayers practices are free from charge and are available by live-stream for members . No previous experience needed and you do not need to be a Buddhist to attend. Everyone is welcome!

What is Wishfulfilling Jewel? An inspiring prayer practice to develop our wisdom, compassion and spiritual protection for the benefit of all living beings.

Wishfulfilling Jewel is the heart essence of Kadampa Buddhism. In the first part we visualize our Spiritual Guide as Je Tsongkhapa and make prayers and requests to purify negativity, accumulate merit, and receive blessings. This prepares our mind for prayers on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment, and to our Dharma Protector, Dorje Shugden. Through this we can overcome obstacles to our practice and create favorable conditions so that we can nurture and increase our pure Dharma realizations.

This practice includes a special tsog (or food) offering. Traditionally, those who wish, bring a vegetarian food offering.

Once we have completed a Vajrayogini close retreat of actions and a fire puja, we are qualified to perform this self-initiation practice. This renews and strengthens our Bodhisattva and Tantric vows, and purifies negativities, including Tantric downfalls.

Practising self-initiation regularly is important because maintaining our vows and commitments is the foundation of all Tantric attainments and, if we break our vows and commitments and do not restore them through an appropriate method, this will be a great obstacle to our attaining Tantric realizations.

Through taking self-initiation regularly we open the door to successful practice of generation stage and completion stage, we will be cared for by Heruka and Vajrayogini in all our lives and receive their blessings so that we quickly attain the Pure Land of Vajrayogini.

Through practicing transference of consciousness, known as ‘powa’ with faith, compassion and concentration we can transfer the consciousness of those recently deceased to a higher rebirth or to the Pure Land of a Buddha. The ceremony can be done either by a group of practitioners or individually on behalf of one or more deceased persons, or countless deceased beings.

By engaging in this practice we also create a great collection of virtue, which will also lead us into the pathway to a Buddha’s Pure Land. Please let us know if a loved one has died and we can do this practice for them.
