21st Annual Phowa Course 2015

The Twenty-First Annual Phowa Course in Bodhgaya will be held 8-17 January 2015. Ayang Rinpoche gives his 10-day Phowa Course annually at the holy place of Shakyamuni Buddha’s enlightenment, Bodhgaya. The course is free to participants. Rinpoche encourages everyone to attend the entire course, and to stay through the last day for the Tsok Offering Prayers.

Please make your hotel and travel arrangements early as Bodhgaya will be unusually full of pilgrims in January. For your reference, please see the 2014 Daily Schedule Bodhgaya Phowa Course. We will post the 2015 daily schedule as soon as it becomes available.

Rinpoche gives the Introduction to the True Nature of Mind teachings following the Phowa Course in alternate years. The next teachings will be in 2015.
