      Kangyur Reading – DETAIL CLICK
      8:30 am – 5:30 pm

      Categories: Religious

      Deer Park will host a reading of the entire Kangyur, the Buddha’s
      Speech. The Kangyur will be read in Tibetan. For those who do
      not read Tibetan, there are a few sutras available in English. These
      include: Vajra Cutter Sutra, the Sutra of Golden Light, and the
      Sanghata Sutra. Deer Park has a limited number of these sutras in
      English. If you have your own copies to read, please bring them.

      The purpose for this reading is for the long life and good health
      of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, for the long lives and good health
      of Geshe Sopa Rinpoche, Jangste Choje Rinpoche, Lama Zopa
      Rinpoche, and Geshe Tenzin Dorje la, and for world peace. It is also
      dedicated to the quick resolution of the situation in Tibet and for
      those who have self-immolated in protest of Communist Chinese
      repression in Tibet. This reading is especially dedicated to the long
      life and good health of our most precious teacher, Geshe Sopa la.

      If any Tibetan families would like to or are able to sponsor
      morning or afternoon tea with bread or lunch or dinner
      during one of the 5 days of Kangyur reading, please con-
      tact Thinley Namgyal at 608-332-8272.

      In order to plan for meals during this time, we request
      that anyone planning to attend any days of the Kangyur
      reading, contact Sherab at 608-332-7080 or email
      lsherab@hotmail.com       to inform him of the specific
      dates you plan to attend.

      activity by sending a check to Deer Park at 4548 Schneider

      Saturday, May 25 is the 15th day of the Tibetan month
      of Saka Dawa. This day is the “essence of Saka Dawa”
      because it commemorates Shakyamuni Buddha’s birth,
      enlightenment, and parinirvana. On this day, the merit
      of virtuous activities is multiplied exponentially. Deer Park
      will host a Guru Puja with tsok at 6:30 p.m. this day. You
      are welcome to bring cookies, fruit, etc. to offer as tsok.
      All are welcome to attend. As part of the puja, you are
      welcome to bring a nonperishable food item which Deer
      Park will donate to an area food pantry.
