Brief description: Lhabab Duchen is one of the holiest and most sacred days in Tibetan Buddhism. Observed on the 22nd day of the ninth Tibetan lunar month (which this year falls on November 22nd), Lhabab Duchen commemorates the Buddha’s return to the human realm after giving teachings to his mother for three months in the Heaven of the Thirty-Three. The merit of all positive actions performed at this time is said to be greatly multiplied. The webcast will be available to view by the end of the day (India time) on November 22nd, 2024.
Event details: Every year Gaden Shartse monastery performs the prelude, principal section, and the conclusion of the Rabne Gelek Charbeb consecration ritual over three days. The ‘Consecration Ritual’ (Rabne) is a powerful practice for cleansing negativities, sicknesses and obstacles, which includes the re-consecration of all the statues, sacred texts and stupas at the monastery, thereby re-empowering all these sacred objects to radiate enlightened and protective qualities throughout the environment for the benefit of all sentient beings. A fire offering puja is also performed on the last day of the consecration ritual. The consecration ritual will be carried out in the presence of all the senior lamas and the entire monk assembly.
Gompa member-supporters are cordially invited to register for this special event. At the time you register, there will also be the opportunity to make a voluntary offering in support of the Gaden Shartse monastery, Mundgod, Karnataka, India.

Ordained since 1977, she is a student of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Tsenzhap Serkong Rinpoche, and several other Tibetan lamas.

Event details: Every year Gaden Shartse monastery performs the prelude, principal section, and the conclusion of the Rabne Gelek Charbeb consecration ritual over three days. The ‘Consecration Ritual’ (Rabne) is a powerful practice for cleansing negativities, sicknesses and obstacles, which includes the re-consecration of all the statues, sacred texts and stupas at the monastery, thereby re-empowering all these sacred objects to radiate enlightened and protective qualities throughout the environment for the benefit of all sentient beings. A fire offering puja is also performed on the last day of the consecration ritual. The consecration ritual will be carried out in the presence of all the senior lamas and the entire monk assembly.

The Drubchen includes one of the most sacred ritual dances, the ‘Kamei Tsa Cham,’ the construction of a sand mandala, and the main Drubchen. This Drubchen consists of the five great sadhanas of Gyutrul Zhiwa, Gyutrul Throwo, Tshogchen Dupa, Lung Lug Tshedrub, and Yangdag Lhagu and is performed simultaneously in five different shrine rooms. This ceremony is held in accordance with the Dupa Do in the ‘Kama,’ or oral tradition, from the Lochen Kabum and represents the entire mandala of the Peaceful and Wrathful Deities. The practice of the ‘Great Kamei Tsogchen Dupa Drubchen’ is considered to convey immense blessings and powers of purification.

Brief description: These suttas (discourses) stress the practice of sati (mindfulness) for the purification of beings, and the overcoming of suffering, and for walking on the path of truth toward the realization of Nirvana. English and Chinese translation available.
[This event was originally webcast in December 2021 as Event ID 1835.]
Event details: The Satipatthana Sutta (The Discourse on the Establishing of Mindfulness), and the subsequently created Mahasatipatthana Sutta (The Great Discourse on the Establishing of Mindfulness), are two of the most celebrated and widely studied discourses in the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism, acting as the foundation for contemporary vipassana meditational practice. The Pali texts of the Satipatthana Sutta and the Mahasatipatthana Sutta are largely similar in content; the main difference being a section about the Four Noble Truths (Catu Ariya Sacca) in the Observation of Phenomena (Dhammanupassana), which is greatly expanded in the Mahasatipatthana Sutta.
Teaching recorded at H.H. the Dalai Lama’s residence in Dharamsala, HP, India. Donations made related to this event are strictly voluntary and any donations that are made will go to the Tibetan International Digital Library, a project supported by His Holiness.

Brief description: Karma is a Sanskrit word which means ‘action’. Karma refers to the doctrine of actions and their causal consequences. These three talks by senior teacher Karma Wangchuk Lhamo are given in Tibetan with English translation. [This event was originally webcast in July 2019 as Event ID 220.]
Event details: The concept of karma includes, in its causal aspect, both the actual actions (physical, verbal and mental) and the psychological imprints and tendencies created within the mind by such actions. After the commitment of an action a causal chain is maintained within the mental continuum which continues through successive events and rebirths. Such a karmic potential is later activated when it interacts with appropriate circumstances and conditions thus leading to the fruition of its effects. In general, if we act motivated by greed, anger, or delusion, we are planting the seed of suffering; when our acts are motivated by generosity, love, or wisdom, then we are creating the karmic conditions for openness and happiness.
Karma Wangchuk Lhamo was ordained at Thrangu Tara Abbey at the age of sixteen. In 1999 she entered solitary retreat for three years in Manang, Nepal. Between 2005 and 2014 she completed the nine year shedra studies course at Namdroling monastery in South India. Since 2014 she has been a senior teacher at Thrangu Tara Abbey.
