Ontario Dharma Celebration in Toronto:
The Source of Happiness and Goodness
Nov. 29 - Dec. 1
Buddha Shakyamuni Empowerment with Commentary to the Liberating Prayer with Gen-la Kelsang Jampa
​
For Buddhists, faith in Buddha Shakyamuni is their spiritual life. To help us to develop and maintain strong faith in Buddha, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche composed the beautiful praise to Buddha Shakyamuni called Liberating Prayer. Understanding and contemplating its meaning is the best method to develop faith in Buddha and his teachings, which is the root of all Dharma realizations.
​
During the Celebration, Gen-la will grant the empowerment of Buddha Shakyamuni and give teachings on Liberating Prayer.
Everybody welcome!
