Guru Rinpoche Statue Consecration and Teaching
Karmapa Center 16 will hold a traditional consecration ceremony for a life-sized bronze statue of Guru Rinpoche, crafted by an artisan in Nepal, and newly installed in the middle of the pond located on the property. Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche will lead the ceremony on Friday, July 24, and offer a free public teaching on The Life and Teachings of Guru Rinpoche on Saturday, July 25. The events are free and open to the public, and will take place both onsite at the Center, and broadcast live online via Zoom.
Green Tara practice
Tara is an important practice in the Kagyü lineage and one of the main practices of the 16th Karmapa. In general, we practice Tara for three main reasons: She is powerful, her blessings are fast, and she is immeasurably kind. Green Tara, in particular, symbolizes the fearless and compassionate energy of our mind’s true nature and the resolve to dispel suffering and fear.
Mahakala practice
The practice of Mahakala was taught by the Buddha and the transmission passed to the Second Karmapa, Karma Pakshi (1206-1283), down the Kagyü lineage up to the present day. We practice Mahakala mainly to clear away obstacles and for the Dharma — teachings on wisdom and compassion - to flourish and benefit all living beings.
