¿Cómo se llega a Oz? Sigue el camino de ladrillos amarillos.

 

¿Cómo se llega a la iluminación? Sigue el lamrim, el camino graduado.

 

Únase a Geshe Gelek mientras nos guía a hitos seleccionados en el camino hacia la iluminación.

 

Geshe-la comenzará a enseñar cómo tomar la esencia de nuestro precioso renacimiento humano el 17 de marzo.

Acerca del lamrim: En su gran compasión, Shakyamuni Buddhia abrió las puertas del camino hacia la iluminación a través de sus enseñanzas.

 

Muchos años después, Lama Atisha organizó todas las enseñanzas del Buda en una guía paso a paso, una hoja de ruta hacia el territorio de la práctica, en un breve texto llamado "Lámpara para el camino hacia la iluminación".

 

Lama Tsongkhapa (el fundador de nuestro linaje Gelugpa) escribió una explicación detallada del texto de Lama Atisha para ayudar a los estudiantes a comprender y practicar las instrucciones, llamado El gran tratado sobre las etapas del camino hacia la iluminación (Lamrim Chenmo). Este fundamento de lamrim es la base de todas las prácticas de nuestro linaje.

Estas increíbles enseñanzas de Geshe Gelek sobre este texto son una oportunidad única y preciosa para obtener conocimientos sobre cómo practicar.

 

Se puede acceder a estas enseñanzas a través de Zoom o en YouTube.

Friday, February 12, (All day) to Saturday, February 27, (All day) 2021

Don't miss out on this powerful two-week opportunity to create masses of merit!

For 15 days beginning on Losar, Tibetan New Year (Friday, Feb. 12), the karmic results of all our actions - good and bad - are multiplied millions of times (as cited by Lama Zopa Rinpoche, from the Vinaya text Treasures of Quotations and Logic).

So it's a good time to make a conscientious effort to do practice - or any positive action, such as smiling at others, letting someone go before you or doing someone else's chores at home. 

 

 

Geshe Gelek encourages us to take advantage of this time and do more practice. 
 
Kadampa Center will hold several prayer services (pujas) during this season:
Guru Puja to honor Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinpoche on Losar, Feb. 12 at 7 pm
Tara Practice Day on the morning of Saturday, Feb. 20 at 10 am
Medicine Buddha Puja on Saturday, Feb. 27 at 2 pm.
 
Our FPMT community in North America has organized some wonderful online events for us to celebrate together on Losar.
 
See additional advice from FPMT for Losar and Days of Miracles practices.
 
Those who have previously taken the Eight Mahayana Precepts may wish to take them on any (or all! why not be brave?) of these days. (The first time we take these vows, it must be with a qualified master.)
