What is being asked of the sangha in terms of offerings?
Devotional Offerings – It is traditional that students make heart-felt offerings to a teacher who is embarking on a long retreat. Making such an offering deepens the karmic bond between the individual and the teacher during the period the teacher is not physically present and creates an energetic flow for the blessings of the lineage to descend. All Shambhalians will have the opportunity to make offerings towards the Sakyong’s year in retreat. These contributions can be made HERE. All sponsors-no matter the amount of the offering-will automatically become members of the Sakyong Ladrang and will have members access through the website to poetry, photos, and writings from the Sakyong’s retreat.
