« All Events

  • This event has passed.

Receive the divine blessings of all the Gurus, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Dharma Protectors in this consecration ritual based on the Solitary Hero Yamantaka practice.

Through the power of mantra, meditation and offerings, this puja invites the enlightened beings to reside in all the spiritual monuments and Buddha images in Kechara Forest Retreat. Filled with divine energy, they become powerful supports for spiritual practice, bringing tremendous blessings and purification to everyone who sees them.

In particular, this year’s ceremony will consecrate the newly-enthroned Medicine Buddha statues and Dorje Shugden liuli artpieces at the Relic Temple Memorial Hall.
