In response to the growing conflict in the Middle East, Her Eminence Jetsunma Ahkön Lhamo Rinpoche is urgently requesting a series of pujas. Whether you are Buddhist or not, please come to the temple to practice together in unity for the end of the war.

From Her Eminence: “You can help. You can DO something. Please try to come in person. We need your energy. Not just your words.

Please pray for the Middle East. All of it. Not one country or another, because everybody is guilty. Pray for the aggressors, which includes us, that they will stop. Pray for the victims, that they will stop their aggressive tendencies and heal. I am afraid it’s going to spread to the whole world.”

This is a big deal. This is how we save the world. We’ll do our part. Will you?”
