✨Two Upcoming Events at DNJ!✨

✨Be sure to mark your calendar and join us for this very special weekend retreat with Ven. Khenmo Sonam Choenzin.✨ More information and registration soon to follow!

✨May 31 • 10am–12pm✨Join us as we light candles and make prayers in honor of the full moon day of Saga Dawa, the 15th day of the 4th Tibetan lunar month. This powerful culmination of Buddhism's most sacred period celebrates the Buddha's birth, enlightenment, and parinirvana. During the entire month of Saga Dawa the power of virtue is magnified exponentially and the full moon represents the peak of this holy time, an especially auspicious moment for spiritual practice and aspiration prayers. All are welcome! If you would like to sponsor a light offering and request prayers, you may do so here: https://givebutter.com/saga-dawa-light-offering

✨Khenmo La gave us instructions and led us in walking meditation around the stupa during our Amitabha Retreat this past weekend in Kentucky.✨

✨What a wonderful weekend at Marpa Retreat Center! ✨Our Amitabha Retreat brought together beautiful community, abundant blessings, and the joy of practicing the Dharma together (plus some amazing food along the way 🙏).
