This practice is a special Guru Yoga of Je Tsongkhapa in conjunction with Highest Yoga Tantra that is a preliminary practice for Vajrayana Mahamudra. The main practice is relying upon our Spiritual Guide as a Buddha and making praises and requests, but it also includes all the essential practices of the stages of the path and training the mind, as well as both the generation stage and completion stage of Highest Yoga Tantra. By relying upon Je Tsongkhapa our compassion, wisdom, and spiritual power naturally increase.

Today we celebrate the great kindness of Je Tsongkhapa, who brought the practice of pure Buddhadharma back to Tibet in the 1300’s. To read a transcript of a talk given by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso about this great Buddhist Master, please click here. 

This practice includes a special food ‘tsog’ offering so you can bring a vegetarian food offering with you if you wish.
