An Announcement for All Those Around the World Who Have a Connection of Any Sort with the Lord of Refuge Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche
Our precious teacher, the Lord of Refuge Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche passed into parinirvana on a very holy day, the anniversary of day when the Buddha Shakyamuni himself passed into parinirvana. …
On the suggestion of the Gyalwang Karmapa, in order for Rinpoche’s students who live far away to have an opportunity to pay their respects to his kudung (precious remains) and gather the accumulation of merit by making offerings to it, the kudung will be preserved until November. At the end, there will be a week-long Chakrasamvara Grand Puja, starting on October 29, 2023, and ending on Saturday, November 4, the festival of the Buddha’s Descent from Heaven, the 22nd day of the ninth Tibetan month. On that day, Rinpoche’s kudung will be cremated at the sacred site of Namo Buddha. All of Rinpoche’s students and everyone who has faith in or any connection with Rinpoche is welcome to attend.

The Halifax Buddhist community has therefore decided “to mirror” these events by conducting a three day Chakrasamvara Druppa (open to Chakrasamvara practitioners) and Guru Yoga sessions for three days (open to everyone), from November 2 to 4. Please put these events in your calendar, and let’s all join together to honor this most venerable teacher of teachers, Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche.

Who can attend: Everyone is welcome.
You can join “in person” at KCCL or “online” with OCEAN.
