Lama Tsongkhapa Day 5th December 2015

"Lama Tsongkhapa (1357-1419) was one of Tibetan Buddhism's greatest scholars and yogis. His brilliant illumination of Buddha's teachings shines through to this day in his Lam Rim Chenmo—The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment—and other profound texts. His spiritual heirs include His Holiness the Dalai Lama. To celebrate, you can read or listen to Ven. Chodron's talk on Tsongkhapa's great kindness and her personal experiences of visiting his meditation cave in Tibet.   Then do some of the practices suggested below: Here are some ways to celebrate Lama Tsongkhapa Day and create merit   Take and keep the Eight Mahayana Precepts for 24 hours.Make many light offerings on your altar, using candles, Christmas lights—whatever you have.Watch Ven. Chodron's series of short teachings on The Essence of a Human Life: Words of Advice for Lay Practitioners, by Lama Tsongkhapa. Study, meditate, and listen to other Tsongkhapa teachings.
