Lama Tsongkhapa
the renowned spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, is celebrated annually on the occasion of his pairinirvana. This special day is known as Lama Tsongkhapa Day or Ganden Ngamchoe, and is observed on the 25th day of the tenth month according to the Tibetan calendar. While making modest gifts is a traditional practice on this day, there are many more ways to honor and gain merit on this auspicious occasion.
One of these practices is the Tsog Offering and Mitsegma recitation puja, which is commonly performed during this festival. Additionally, Segyu Gaden Phodrang will be hosting a thousand-light offering and special dedication prayers to celebrate this special day. This is a wonderful opportunity to offer your devotions and prayers to Je Tsongkhapa, with the hope that his teachings will spread far and wide, and bring enlightenment and liberation to countless sentient beings.
If you would like to support this event and make a dedication prayer request, please visit the monthly puja page. We hope that you will join us in celebrating the life and teachings of Lama Tsongkhapa on this special day.
