Medicine Buddha every Thursday 1pm Pacific time

At the beginning of Covid His Holiness the Dalai Lama encouraged everyone to do the practice of Medicine Buddha.  Under Prema’s guidance some Tara Dhatu student teachers have maintained a daily Medicine Buddha practice since May 2020. There are several parts to this outreach.

Members and friends are invited to submit names of people or pets who are struggling with life threatening illness or who have recently died. Those who wish are sent the week’s list and are invited to include the names in their daily practice.

Once a week a student teacher opens a zoom meeting of Medicine Buddha meditation and dance, with prayers for the list that has accumulated over the week. Anyone interested is welcome to join.
