Dear Sangha,


At Ayang Rinpoche’s monastery in South India, Thupten Shedrub Jangchub Ling, they are holding their annual Vajrakilaya Drupchoe Puja, October 20-24, 2023.


Vajrakilaya (Dorje Phurba) is known in the Tibetan Buddhist world as the most powerful means of destroying the forces counteracting compassion and of purifying obscurations and negativity. The phurba, or wisdom dagger, is a symbol of our unchangeable true nature of mind. “Vajrakilaya is the best practice to clear away any kind of obstacles.”


All the monastery’s lamas, monks, nuns and associated lay people in the community will do elaborate offering prayers and chant the Vajrakilaya mantra for five full days. Everyone is welcome to participate by chanting the mantra at home (click here for details).


You are also welcome to make offerings to remove obstacles for yourself, your business, or for a loved one, including pets, whether they are living or deceased. Send donations to the Amitabha Foundation in your own country, or for a tax deductible donation in the U.S., please send your check to the Amitabha Foundation, P.O. Box 2572, Aptos, California 95001, or donate online here. Dedications submitted by October 23 at 5 pm (Pacific) will be posted in the temple for the conclusion of the Drubchoe.


May merit increase and all beings benefit,


Your friends at the Amitabha Foundation
