25 January Event at Gyuto Vajrayana CenterDear Friends,Here are the next two events on the Gyuto calendar. Saturday, January 31st Guru Puja, Tsog Offering 10.00am - 11.00am Twice monthly, based on the lunar calendar, the practice of Tsog Offering is done. It is a commitment for those practicing Tantra to restore and reaffirm their vows and pledges. Everyone is welcome to attend this ritual of making offerings to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Those participating can bring offerings such as fruit, cookies and flowers. Sunday, February 1st Sutrayana and Tantrayana (2nd and final part) 10.00am -12.00pm Traditionally students request their teacher to give specific teaching based on individual interest. However, we have asked Rinpoche what he thinks is beneficial for the students. Rinpoche said that for the first two teachings he would like to give talks on the difference between Sutrayana and Tantrayana because it is very important to understand these two practices before students choose to do any further Tantric practices. Rinpoche will also explain how to handle the practice of Tantra and Sutra and why it is important to practice Tantra with a deity. (For those of you who missed Rinpoche's first teaching on this topic, students who attended commented on the clarity of the teaching and how Rinpoche was able to capture the essence of the complex teaching in a readily accessible way.) Parking at the Center: Our special request to all members: Please be so kind as to park your car a few blocks away from the Center. We suggest you park on the right side of the Center towards Piedmont Road and on the right-hand side of the street. Our neighbors have complained about the traffic and we are trying to be considerate. We thank you very much for your help. Ven.
