SUMMARY:Milarepa Guru Yoga and Feast Honoring Kalu Rinpoche and Bokar Rinpoche
DESCRIPTION:Followed by a Potluck Lunch\nIn-person and via Zoom \nIn KCC’s 50th anniversary year\, we will honor our connection to both the dharma center’s founder\, Kalu Rinpoche\, and his successor\, Bokar Rinpoche\, by practicing Milarepa’s Guru Yoga and Feast in their honor. This date falls between the anniversary of the passing of the previous Kalu Rinpoche (May 10\, 1989) and the birthday of the reincarnation of Bokar Rinpoche (April 25\, 2006). You needn’t have any empowerment nor previous experience with the practice to attend. \nA guru yoga is a practice where we imagine a prominent master of the lineage before us\, in this case Milarepa\, and that this being is also the essence of our other teachers and inspirations\, such as Kalu Rinpoche and Bokar Rinpoche. We then chant a text\, making offerings and supplications to these masters. \nTowards the end of the ritual\, we will chant a few songs composed by Kalu Rinpoche and Bokar Rinpoche and will continue with a shared “feast”— a small bit of consecrated food and drink which we consume as part of the practice. At the end\, we receive blessing and inspiration from Milarepa\, mix our mind with the awakened mind of these masters\, rest for a bit\, and conclude with an aspiration prayer. At the conclusion of this\, we will share in a potluck lunch which will begin around 12:00pm. \nThe text will be displayed on the screen in the meditation hall and on the Zoom screen. The food and drink for the ritual will be provided—no need to bring offerings for this. If you would like to contribute to the event\, you can donate here.\n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://staging2.kcc.org/event/milarepa-guru-yoga-and-feast-honoring-kalu-rinpoche-and-bokar-rinpoche/
