Tara Puja for removal of all obstacles
Tara (the Liberator) is a Buddha in female form who represents in particular all enlightened beings’ skilful activities.
Contemplating Tara brings quick results in whatever we want and need – the ultimate happiness of enlightenment, (known as the Mother of all Buddhas, she awakens and helps fulfill our potential to attain enlightenment); and also helps bring temporal benefits of this life relating to work, business, family, relationships etc.
Taking part in this practice enables us to develop Tara’s energy within us, which is the energy of our own active compassion and wisdom.
The puja runs for approximately one hour and everyone is most welcome to attend. The puja is recited in both English and Tibetan.
One could also sponsor a Tara Puja to assist with the removal of obstacles or create merit for oneself or someone else. Please contact Ani Tsekyi if you are interested in sponsoring a Tara Puja

Medicine Buddha Puja for long life and healing
“May I relieve those afflicted by diseases which destroy life, destroy work, leave families broken, worse suffering and take happiness away.”
“May I relieve them of their disease and suffering, relieve their inner, outer and secret diseases. “
“May I stop natural calamities and the diseases or unhappiness arising from that. May I be the cause of people being freed from suffering.”
The Medicine Buddha made this special wish prior to gaining enlightenment and he now helps us in the great capacity of a healer. Endowed with healing energy, the Medicine Buddha puja encourages healing of all levels – physical, mental and emotional healing for those in need.
It is a very powerful way to help people who suffer especially from sicknesses and for families or friends of people who are sick. For those whose profession is to heal others (e.g. doctors, nurses, therapists, counselors, masseurs, energy healers etc), Medicine Buddha’s practice is supreme to make their healing work more efficacious and effective.
ALL WELCOME
The puja runs for approximately one hour and everyone is most welcome to attend. The puja is recited in both English and Tibetan.
One could also sponsor a Medicine Puja to assist with the removal of obstacles or create merit for oneself or someone else. Please contact us at dharmanewzealand@gmail.com if you would like to sponsor a puja or have any inquiries.
