LONGCHEN
NYINGTHIG MAHAKALA PUJA
We have invited H.E. Tulku Jampal Lodoe Rinpoche and
his teacher, Sonam Rinpoche to lead the 5 days Longchen
Nyingthig Mahakala Puja from 8th to 12th May 2013,
together with Samten Rinpoche (resident teacher) and
lamas.
Mahakala, a protector of the Buddhist teachings, is
also known as the chief dharmapala. Dharmapalas are
basically Buddhas who undertake the role of removing
obstacles on the path of practitioners.
The objective of Mahakala is to assist practitioners
in removing anything that impedes their practice, as
well as to encourage exertion and devotion and at the
same time purify obscurations and wrongdoings.
Blessings will be bestowed and obstacles will be removed
if one prays earnestly to Mahakala.
So long as one attends the prayer
sessions and continually makes prayers and offerings to
Mahakala, the protections of Mahakala and His retinue
will not depart from oneself until perfect awakening is
experienced. Mahakala prayers also foster peacefulness
in a country, harmony at home and better career
prospects.
