Tukdrup Sampa Lhündrup Tsok Bum

Join the Samye Sangha on Treldha Tsechu, the 10th Day of the sixth month, the Monkey Month (August 7, 2022), in celebrating Guru Rinpoche’s birth within a lotus blossom on Lake Danakosha, turning the wheel of Dharma for the dakinis of the island, he is known as Guru Tsokye Dorje.

Please join us during this auspicious time in accumulating one hundred-thousand tsok offerings of The Spontaneous Fulfiller of All Wishes (Tukdrup Sampa Lhündrup). Our monks will make extensive offerings from the Asura Cave Retreat Center in Nepal. Together, our monks, nuns, and lay sangha will accumulate a total of 100,000 repetitions of the Sampa Lhündrup Tsok offering prayer. Preceding this event, Phakchok Rinpoche’s monks will complete two days of annual elaborate Tukdrup Sampa Lhündrup pujas.

Information about tsok practice

Offering tsok is considered to be the supreme method for accumulating merit and wisdom, restoring all breakages of samaya, and fulfilling the wishes of the deities, gurus, protectors, and vajra brothers and sisters. Thus all unfavorable circumstances will be dispelled and all practitioners’ wishes will be swiftly fulfilled. An immensely powerful way to perform tsok is as a tsok bum, or 100,000 accumulations of the tsok offering.

For the upcoming tsok bum of Tukdrup Sampa Lhündrup, we would like to share with you the following introduction to the Tukdrup Sampa Lhündrup. Please also refer to our library entry concerning tsok practice which features a brief teaching kindly provided by Rinpoche on how we can direct our practice while performing feast offerings, as well as information on the benefits of tsok practice. Our partners at Akara Collection have also created a beautiful Tukdrup Sampa Lhündrup Thangka to support our practice.

Joining via YouTube

At the same time that we are practicing via Zoom, we will be live-streaming aspects of the Samye Zoom meeting via YouTube.

This recording will remain publicly available for 24 hours after the conclusion of the Puja.

Remember: even if you decide to join via YouTube, you still have to register and pledge your malas on Zoom. Please note: translations in different languages are only availabe via Zoom, not YouTube.
