Through the power of collective prayer and our good hearts we will create the peaceful world we all wish for.

We can give the best present to everyone…inner peace!
This is what we and our world need most.

We don’t need to feel hopeless or helpless in the difficulties, sorrow and uncertainty of our current climate. We can give and make a huge difference, through the power of our prayers and good heart.

Coming together to generate and meditate on loving kindness and compassion will have a beneficial and profound effect on our world. Through the power of collective prayer and our good hearts we will create the peaceful, pure world we all wish for.

Followed by a Pot Luck lunch with spiritual friends…keep the good vibes going.

There will be another Prayers for World Peace on Sunday 14th June.

This practice 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 a meditation on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment. After the meditation we make prayers to our Dharma Protector, Dorje Shugden. Through this we can overcome obstacles to our practice and create favourable conditions so that we can nurture and increase our pure Dharma realizations.

Duration: 1hr 10mins

Offering to the Spiritual Guide (OSG) is a special Guru yoga of Je Tsongkhapa in conjunction with Highest Yoga Tantra. The main practice is relying upon the Spiritual Guide, but it also includes all the essential practices of the stages of the path (Lamrim) and training the mind (Lojong), as well as both the generation and completion stages of Highest Yoga Tantra. This practice includes a tsog offering.
​If you wish, you can bring a vegetarian food offering.

Duration: 1hr 45mins

This extensive sadhana, or “method of attainment,” is for fulfilling our commitment to rely on the Dharma Protector and to practice Lamrim, Lojong, and Mahamudra, and for restoring any degenerate or broken commitments During this puja we make extensive offerings.

‘Having the good quality of contentment with few desires, studying profusely the scriptural tradition of the great Charioteers, with detailed analysis and focused discussion, and quoting countless scriptural citations and reasonings; through this practice may I fulfill the heart commitments of Dorje Shugdans five lineages and their retinues. Please accomplish the wishes of all practitioners and protect the pure doctrine of Je Tsongkhapa.’
