In these days of change and challenge, we call on the great protector of the Shangpa Kagyu and Kagyu lineages, Chagdrukpa, the 6-armed Mahakala. Monthly practices are held on the day before New Moon, this month, Sept. 24, at 5:30 p.m. Practitioners are asked to bring a tsok food offering to share. The puja may last 2-1/2 to 3 hours. All are welcome to share with the sangha and Ven. Lama Karma Dorje.
