A Special OSG Puja Celebrating Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso

June 4 is Turning the Wheel of Dharma Day. It marks the anniversary of Buddha’s first teaching in this world and is also the birthday of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, our root guru and the Founder of the New Kadampa Tradition.

While we remember the extraordinary kindness of Venerable Geshe-la everyday, this June 4, with minds of rejoicing and gratitude, we will commemorate this special day with an Offering to the Spiritual Guide puja.

Everybody is welcome to join us!
