Lutor (naga torma ritual) is a complex ritual during which abundant ritual cakes are offered to the nagas in an elaborate representation of a naga abode.
Lusang (naga incense ritual) involves burning a special mixture of incense, healing herbs and medicines and offering the fragrant smoke to the nagas.
Lubum and Lui Pangkong (naga recitation rituals) are effective for activating the benefits of naga-related pujas.
Torma Gyatsa is an extensive 100-torma offering to the Three Jewels including the wealth deities and Dharma protectors, and to all sentient beings in the six realms.
These pujas will be conducted by visiting Sangha from Shar Gaden, Serpom, Phelgyeling and Segyu monasteries, alongside high lamas and esteemed geshes.

What are nagas?
Nagas are powerful beings with the ability to control the weather, increase fertility, and bring good fortune, wealth and positivity. However, they are sensitive and when offended, they can inflict diseases, create obstacles and natural disasters. In particular, many cancers, skin-related conditions and family problems arise due to us knowingly or unknowingly offending a naga.
Hence it is wise to participate in naga pujas whenever the opportunity arises to please and appease the nagas.
