Heart Jewel PujaIn this puja we practice the special Guru Yoga of Je Tsongkhapa, and make prayers to our Dharma Protector, Dorje Shugdän. These two practices are the very essence of the New Kadampa Tradition of Mahayana Buddhism. Wishfulfilling Jewel PujaA slightly more extensive version of Heart Jewel puja, usually combined with a tsog offering. Tara PujaTara is our spiritual mother who helps us increase our understanding of Lamrim (the stages of the path to enlightenment). By offering praises and requests to Tara we increase our wisdom and compassion and come under the loving care and protection of an enlightened mother. Medicine BuddhaMedicine Buddha is a fully enlightened being who helps us heal not just our physical ailments but also the unhealthy states of mind that foster them. The medicine Buddha puja is a powerful healing practice both for oneself and for others. Offering to the Spiritual Guide PujaThis practice is the nectar that dissolves a stone heart. It is two hours of offerings and requests to our precious Spiritual Guide who is kinder to us than even Buddha, because if it were not for our Spiritual Guide we would not even know the word Buddha.
