Year of the Water Dragon -- Losar at Vajra Dakini Nunnery on Feb. 22


On Wednesday, February 22  Wednesday, there will be celebrations of Losar, the Tibetan New Year, at the Vajra Dakini Nunnery.  These programs are open. 
 
Dawn (7:45 am)  Offering to Ven. Dhyani Ywahoo with the Serkangma Seven Limb Offering prayer. Traditionally the new year begins auspiciously with greeting one's lama with prayers at first light, then offerings to one's Guru and the Three Jewels.  We will recite the Serkangma Prayer as a Guru Yoga Tsog or feast and make a smoke offering to clear obstacles in the new year.

Evening  (7:00 pm) Butterlamp Offering  We will host a candle lighting ceremony for Tibet and world peace.
