Discriminating the Three Vows by Sakya Pandita

10.30am - 1.00pm

Sakya Pandita’s masterpiece offers a brilliant examination of the spiritual disciplines found in the Three Vehicles. Topics dealt with in this work include the reality of the Buddha nature, the ethics of a bodhisattva and the correct practice of Vajrayana. This is the first occasion upon which Lama Jampa has taught this text.

Initiation of White Sarasvati

2.30 -4.30pm

Saraswati is famous as one of the principal wisdom deities in Vajrayana Buddhism and as a patroness of poetry and music. Thus many great masters have cultivated her meditation for the many qualities that it bestows. Lama Jampa will give the initiation of White Saraswati from the Bodong lineage.

Refuge and bodhisattva vows will be given to everyone during the preliminary part of the initiation.
