Teachings on Lam Rim
Jun 2 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

We have made a heart felt request that our resident spiritual teacher: Ven. Geshe Sangey Thinley teach the Lam Rim on Thursday nights and he has kindly agreed.

This is a special opportunity for us to receive teachings from a genuine master of Tibetan Buddhist Philosophy.
Geshe-la will be using the Lam Rim written by Pabongka Rinpoche – Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand. Geshela has emphasised that he will likely move around in the subject areas of the text.

If you have this text please bring it with you. For those who don’t have it, we will have a few copies that can be purchased for cash at the centre. There are also copies at our shop Himalayan Trading Post. If you would like us to hold a copy please email us at dharmanewzealand(at) gmail.com.

The classes are open to all – beginners, non Buddhists – and Buddhists alike – and will continue through out the year – all welcome.

JOIN THE CLASS THROUGH SKYPE?
This is possible by sending a skype request to nzbuddhistcentre and send us a message at 6:45am on the night of the class you wish to attend.
We will Skype you just before the prayers start.

What to wear: comfortable clothing
What to bring: Lam Rim text by Pabongka Rinpoche – Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand, A note book and pen if you wish to take notes. Cost: Koha

Tara Puja for removal of all obstacles
Jun 12 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

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 us at dharmanewzealand(@)gmail.com if you are interested in sponsoring a Puja.
