Adhisthana
Sangarakshita's Birthday Event Invoking Padmasambhava: The Precious Master | Bhante 100
Monday 25 August 9:30am – 7pm
Led by Subhuti + team
This is going to be a large international gathering in the big marquee and the stunning surroundings of Adhisthana. It is a day when our community comes together to celebrate Sangharakshita's life and learn about Padmasambhava. It is expected that many hundreds of friends, mitras and Order members will be there (including Shakyapada and Tasha).
There will be no official York party but why not team up with friends and make your own way there? Booking is direct with Adhisthana.
Shakyapada can offer two places in her car on the return journey
Padmasambhava made the journey from India, the land of Urgyen, to help establish the Dharma in the particular, hostile cultural conditions of Tibet. A millennium later Urgyen Sangharakshita, impressed with that same stream of spiritual energy, made the journey from India to the West to help establish the Dharma in the modern world and in doing so gifted us a ‘true spiritual tradition’.
Out of gratitude, and instilled with inspiration to let the light burn bright for others, let’s gather a momentous number of people to meditate, chant, perform puja and engage in symbolic ritual on a mountainous scale. Let us appeal to the unconscious depths.
The power of hundreds of devoted practitioners performing feats of ritual, collectively calling on the adhisthana (or grace) of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, will be unleashed on the cosmos. And then we’ll sit silently, waiting to hear, see and feel the response.
Please note, you must arrive on site by 9.30 and booking is essential
