Sutra of Golden Light Reading

February 16 – March 2, 2018

As part of the “15 Days of Miracles” following Losar, we will be having a group recitation of The Golden Light Sutra (in English) at 1pm every day between February 16 – March 2, 2018.

All welcome, no need to register – just come! (please be aware that as there may be a course in progress, we ask you to keep silence as you arrive and depart Tushita – many thanks!)

As Lama Zopa Rinpoche says, “The holy Golden Light Sutra is … extremely powerful and fulfills all one’s wishes, as well as bringing peace and happiness for all sentient beings, up to enlightenment. It is also extremely powerful for world peace, for your own protection, and for the protection of the country and the world. Also, it has great healing power for people in the country … Anyone can read this text, Buddhists and non-Buddhists who desire world peace.”

You do not need any special permission or instruction. Simply wash your hands, face and feet. Then take refuge in the Teacher and the Three Jewels. Make prayers to end violence, natural disasters and illness, and to establish peace and happiness for all. Think: I myself can cause this and for this reason, I will recite the glorious Sutra of Golden Light.

Begin by repeating the mantra Om Dhare Dhare Bendhare Svaha seven times. This increases the merit millions of times. Then begin your recitation. Recite all at once, or a little at a time. Be comfortable and enjoy.  When you have completed your recitations, dedicate the merits to the peace and happiness of all beings.

MAY ALL BEINGS BE HAPPY!
