GURU PUJA

The day after the Fire Puja, we offered a Guru Puja to all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas thanking them for opportunity to attend the 3 months of retreat. Local dharma practitioners from the area were invited to attend, and quite a few of them did.

The retreatants offer the mandala to Venerable.
Participants make traditional final offerings of long khatas (scarves) and donations and receive blessings at the end of the ceremony.
Venerable touches foreheads with one of the retreatants in a traditional Tibetan sign of affection.

Several local people joined the retreatants who thank the Three Jewels for the opportunity to do retreat.
The puja was one filled with happiness and gratefulness to Venerable for all of her inspiration during the 3 months.
