Gutor-Losar Vajrakilaya Retreat

February 6-16, 2018

This year the Vajrakilaya pujas will be accompanied by 10 days of Shenpa (Dharma protector) prayer accumulations, February 4 through February 13. On February 14, Gutor Day, we will conclude the retreat with the offering of the large wrathful torma in a bonfire. February 15 will be the traditional day of cleaning and preparation for Losar, February 16. Losar is celebrated with pujas, the raising of prayer flags, a Riwo Sang Chod smoke offering puja, and sharing of Tibetan fortune soup.
