About Chotrul Duchen
Chotrul Duchen (Day of Miracles) marks the end of the 15 Days of Miracles.
Chotrul Duchen, meaning “Great Day of Miraculous Manifestations”, is one of the four great holy days observed by Tibetan Buddhists, always occurring on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the Tibetan calendar. During this time, it is believed that the effects of both positive and negative actions are multiplied ten million times.
Join us to celebrate this holy day by reciting the Shakyamuni Buddha Puja (with Tsog offering)
All welcome. Offerings of flowers and fruit for puja appreciated
