THE KHORDONG BUDDHIST ASSOCIATION IN POLAND
WOULD LIKE TO INVITE FOR RETREATS
AT DROPHAN LING CENTRE IN DARNKÓW
26. 06 - 15. 07. 2010 NEW DATES
14th Butterlamp Offering Ceremony conducted by Tulku Migme Lama
The fee for the Butterlamp Offering Ceremony is 17 PLN / per day + 26 PLN meals.
Children under the age of 10 - 7 PLN/ per day.
GREAT APPEAL TO EVERYBODY!!!
For 13 years we were able to offer butterlamps according to the wish of our teacher Chimed Rigdzin Rinpoche. For Rinpoche the Butterlamp Offering Ceremony was especially important and he deeply cared to have it in Darnków every year.
During this retreat we will offer butterlamps as we do every year for the world peace.
To make the retreat happen we need oil (3.400 l is needed to fill 111.111 butterlamps), wicks, clothes and airline ticket for Tulku Migme Lama.
The payment for the retreat covers only the costs of staying in our center during the retreat.
Last year 111.111 lamps were offered thanks to sponsors who paid for oil.
Last year we were able once again to offer traditional 111 111 butterlamps thanks to sponsors and people, who cleaned butterlamps, also during the retreat with His Holiness Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche.
So we kindly ask everybody to sponsor butterlamps!
Please send the money to Khordong Association Poland bank account with information “DONATION FOR BUTTERLAMPS”.
