The whole day will be dedicated to the slow recitation and visualisation of the Medicine Buddha sadhana and exploration of of the text to deepen your understanding. You will learn how to set up the shrine, develop your visualisation, explore the structure and content of the text, while generating merit for all beings and fulfilling the wishes of Lama Zopa Rinpoche. There will be plenty of opportunities throughout the day to ask questions and share experiences to help develop your confidence in the practice and bring your mind closer to the blessings of Medicine Buddha. Known for his warmth and sense of humour, Jay has been leading Medicine Buddha pujas at JBCL for several years. Jay is also the former FPMT UK coordinator, volunteer Buddhist chaplain for Leeds Teaching Hospitals (NHS Trust) Chaplaincy Service and long-term student of the Dharma, as well as our beloved café manager! Please bring some healthy vegetarian food for a shared lunch and tsog offering for the shrine. Please email smile@jamyangleeds.co.uk to confirm a place.

Coming together in a group to do prostrations and mantra recitation makes purification strong and consistent. These practices are powerful methods from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition for purifying negative karmic residues which taint the natural purity of our minds. The sessions are open to all, regardless of whether you have received initiations or formally taken refuge. All you need is a wish to move on from unhelpful actions done in the past with an openness to the power of visualisation and prayer. Book using the ‘Book Button’ above or email smile@jamyangleeds.co.uk to let us know you will be joining us.

The practice of making offerings to the enlightened beings is viewed as extremely important in our Buddhist tradition. It brings us closer to enlightenment ourselves and brings many other benefits, both to oneself individually and to the spiritual community, the Dharma Centre. The Lama Choepa practice is very beautiful and profound – it is a great opportunity to meet and celebrate together as a community. Lama Zopa Rinpoche strongly recommends we should do this practice regularly so you are warmly invited to attend, chant, listen, meditate and enjoy some blessed food! Please feel free to bring offerings for the shrine such as biscuits, chocolates or flowers.
