SUMMARY:No Monday Night Chanted Prayers
DESCRIPTION:Rinpoche is traveling today\, so no regular practice. \nChanted prayers are an important component of training in spiritual life. They help us to still our mind\, connect with the Buddhas and receive blessings. Join us on Monday evenings as Rinpoche leads us in chanted prayers recited in Tibetan and English.  Prayers are typically those of Amitabha Buddha (Buddha of Infinite Light)\, but occasionally also Avalokiteshvara Buddha (Buddha of Infinite Compassion) or Medicine Buddha (Buddha of Infinite Healing). We imagine a world transformed\, purified\, and at peace.  Beginners to advanced practitioners are welcome\, prayer books are provided. Free of charge\, but donations are welcome.

SUMMARY:Lhabab Düchen/Thargyen Class
DESCRIPTION:On Lhabab Duchen\, the effects of positive or negative actions are multiplied ten million times. It is part of Tibetan Buddhist tradition to engage in virtuous activities and prayer on this day. \nLhabab Duchen is a Buddhist festival celebrated to observe the Buddha’s descent from the Trāyastriṃśa heaven down to earth. According to legend\, the Buddha ascended the Trāyastriṃśa heaven temporarily at the age of 41\, in order to give teachings to benefit the gods in that desire realm and to repay the kindness of his mother by liberating her from Samsara. He was exhorted by his disciple and representative Maudgalyayana to return\, and after a long debate and under a Full Moon Buddha agreed to return. He returned to earth a week later by a special triple ladder prepared by Viswakarma\, the god of machines. This event is considered to be one of the eight great deeds of the Buddha. \nSince Lhabab Duchen falls on a Wednesday the night of Thargyen class\, the schedule will be: \n6:30 PM \nA shorter than usual Thargyen lesson. \n7:00 PM \nGuru Yoga Practice–Prayer to Japa Sangye Tenzin\, who is Khenpo Karten Rinpoche’s first root guru. \n8:00 PM \nLucky Pot!  Bring food offerings for all our gurus\, that we will share together after the ceremony.  If you haven’t been to a Manjushri Center Lucky Pot\, you will be delighted with the great food and the chance to meet and socialize with old and new sangha members.
