Long Life Ceremony for Geshe Sopa


Geshe Lhundub Sopa

                        Deer Park Buddhist Center's guiding spirit, Geshe Lhundub Sopa, is recognized worldwide as one of the greatest living spiritual masters of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.  For many centuries Tibetan Buddhists have offered Long Life Pujas to their teachers.  The Long Life Ceremony purifies the relationship between teacher and  disciple, and creates the merit for the teacher to remain among us. Since all realization depends on the blessing and guidance of the teacher who is revered  as the embodiment of living wisdom and compassion, the ritual offering practice is extraordinarily precious.  SiLas attended this puja with me last summer.
