Saka Dawa Prayer

May 16, 2016;

HH the Dalai Lama today presides over the prayer ceremony for the month of Saka Dawa at Tsuglag Khang Temple in Dharamshala. The fourth month of Tibetan calendar is considered sacred because Buddha displayed the deeds of birth, enlightenment and Parinirvana. Tibetans observe this month as the month of merit and pay more attention to spiritual activities. Hundreds of people assembled to get a blessing from His Holiness.
