CHOD DUR
Conducted By: Tara Rinpoche
Date: 23rd to 25th
April 2010
Timing: 10am to 12pm & 2pm to 5pm
Venue: Palyul Nyingma Buddhist Association (721
Geylang Road
S389632)
The Chöd Dur is a powerful ceremony in the Tibetan Buddhist
tradition and is intended to dispel negative forces whose
presence are indicated by
incurable
diseases, cancers, mental illness, depression and
other personal problems, as well as, removing visible and
invisible obstacles. This extremely powerful extension of
the Chöd rite is aimed at first invoking through wrath,
then liberating through compassion, all negativity that
causes disease, accidents, madness and all non-conducive
conditions. It is particularly beneficial to attendees, but
for those not able to be present, it is also beneficial to
bring them into the mandala by means of personal effects or
a photograph. The ritual is of great benefit to both the
living and the deceased. The Dur is a very ancient Tibetan
ritual performed for very serious and important matters.
You are welcome to sit in during the prayers
by Tara Rinpoche and Lamas to receive the blessing.
Registration is as follows:
I) Contribution for puja: S$10/-
II) 3 days Lamp Offering: S$15 per name
Due to last minutes notification, please ensure that your cheque payment reach
