Thrangu Monasteries in Nepal and India hold 45 days long Summer Rain Retreat.
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, 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. (READ MORE)
