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.

夏．堪祖仁波切Non-Sectarian Master of Kalachakra夏．堪祖嘉培珞珠仁波切是國際機構Dzokden（音譯：卓登）的創始人及精神導師。仁波切亦是Unveiling Your Sacred Truth（《照見真實》）、The Great Middle Way : Clarifying the Jonang View of Other-Emptiness（暫譯：大中觀：覺囊派他空見）、A Happier Life（暫譯：美好的生命）、The Hidden Treasure of the Profound Path（聖道秘寶：《神聖的階梯 》詳釋）等書的作者。
仁波切二十歳前在西藏高原上放牧及誦持真言咒語。受到菩薩的感召，他離開家庭，到多間寺院參學，得到二十五位以上的大師指導，廣習所有藏傳佛教的傳承。正因為這種不論派別的學習，他獲得「利美」（Rimé）大師之銜，亦被認證為時輪金剛大師雅旺確津嘉措（Ngawang Chözin Gyatso）的轉世。仁波切教學的核心是認識到全世界有眾多多樣化而有價值的心靈傳承。當中，他專注傳揚覺囊派的時輪教法（Kalachakra），這是殊勝之道，能讓外在環境與內在身心靈世界和諧一致，超越地帶來黃金時代的平和與和諧 （Dzokden）。
夏．堪祖仁波切以弘揚這些珍貴的教法為終身使命，致力於將其翻譯成多種語言，並在全球內傳播，希望能夠從每一個人的內在開始，一個人接著一個人地改變，從而真正改變我們的世界。
