Dedicated to the Swift return of Lama Zopa Rinpoche as a bright unmistaken child.

During the practice of Lama Choepa, we invoke all the lamas of the graduated path lineage, beginning with Shakyamuni Buddha himself, extending to our present direct teachers who have shown us the path. We pay homage to them, make offerings, and request each of them to please bless our minds with the same realizations that they themselves have generated. By offering sincere, heartfelt requests, we make our minds ripe to receive the full blessings of this precious lineage and quickly actualize the realizations we need to attain enlightenment. If we wish to experience realisations quickly, the practice of Lama Choepa is indispensable.

“If you are able to do the practice of Guru Puja in your daily life, it contains all the important points of sutra and tantra. It is a complete practice, and it shows the heart of the instruction of Lama Tsongkhapa’s tradition. Even if one can’t do much else in daily life, Guru Puja is the essential practice.”

Open to all Buddhists, no empowerments needed.

Please arrive early and bring flowers, incense, vegetarian food and drink as offerings for the altar.
