Chökhor Düchen – First Turning of the Wheel of Dharma
July 24, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Please join Rinpoche and the MDC to celebrate Chökhor Düchen – ‘The First Turning of the Wheel of Dharma’ with a Buddha Shakyamuni Puja. This is an important holiday in which we honor the day that the Buddha Shakyamuni first taught after attaining enlightenment. For seven weeks after his enlightenment, Buddha did not teach. Finally, encouraged by Indra and Brahma, he turned the Wheel of Dharma for the first time, at Sarnath, by teaching the ‘Four Noble Truths’. Before the event, please read Rinpoche’s in-depth Teaching and blog Essence of Buddhism As Related to the Four Noble Truths
