Vesak Celebration: 1000 Buddhas Puja & Praises of Shakyamuni
This event is FREE and available both Online and In-person.
In celebration of the Birth, Death, and Enlightenment of Shakyamuni Buddha, we recite praises recounting the accomplishments of his incredible life. Connecting and learning from his example, we, too, can take steps to learn and practice in stages to reveal our own enlightened nature. The first step to changing the world to a more peaceful, harmonious place is to change ourselves. It is with each of the karmas we make, each cause and condition, that we plant the seeds to change ourselves and then, through our transformation, the world around us. Shakyamuni spent years of diligent practice and effort to understand the nature of reality and reveal his own nature before he was able to teach others. Once he transformed himself, his enlightened speech and activity had the power to transform our world and continue to through this day.
In addition to the praises to the Buddha of our time, we will chant the powerful 1000 Buddha Puja to connect with all the 1000 Buddhas of this fortunate eon. Connecting with 1000 Buddhas and sharing their names creates powerful conditions for all who hear this to be reborn in a higher realm and to come into contact with the Dharma. All practices done at this time are incredibly powerful as the merit is multiplied by 100 million times.

Khentrul RinpocheMaestro Jonang Kalachakra
Khentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö es el fundador y director espiritual de Dzokden. Rinpoche es el autor de Develando tu verdad sagrada, El gran camino del medio: Clarificando la visión Jonang del ‘vacío de lo otro’, Una vida más feliz y El tesoro oculto del camino de la profundización.
Rinpoché vivió sus primeros 20 años pastoreando yaks y cantando mantras en las mesetas del Tíbet. Inspirado en la vida de los Bodhisattvas, él dejó a su familia para estudiar en varios monasterios bajo la instrucción de más de 25 maestros de todas las tradiciones tibetanas. Debido a su enfoque no sectario, Rinpoché obtuvo el título de Maestro Rimé (libre de prejuicios) y fue identificado como la encarnación del gran maestro de Kalachakra, Ngawang Chozin Gyatso. Aunque en esencia sus enseñanzas reconocen el valor de la diversidad de toda tradición espiritual del mundo, Rinpoché se ha enfocado en las enseñanzas de la tradición Jonang- Shambhala. Las enseñanzas del Kalachakra (rueda del tiempo) contienen métodos profundos para armonizar nuestro entorno externo con el mundo interno del cuerpo y la mente; lo que finalmente manifiesta la Edad de Oro de la Paz y la Armonía (Dzokden).
