Losar, the Tibetan New Year will be celebrated at TBI with a Guru Puja.

The Guru Puja – “Lama Chopa” in Tibetan – is a tantric practice, in the Gelug tradition, of making offerings to the spiritual master and includes a review of all the points of the combined sutra and tantra path to enlightenment. It is a beautiful ritual and there are many different tunes sung throughout a session.

For this event TBI will host a shared lunch.
