Description

Every month on Guru Rinpoche Day, monks and nuns at Asura Cave will offer butter lamps for the benefit of beings. Asura Cave is a truly special sacred site where Guru Rinpoche manifested the realization of Mahamudra. Among many benefits for beings, lighting butter lamps enhances the clarity of one’s meditation.

Together with offering butter lamps, remember to make aspirations. You can find the concise version of the lamp aspiration prayer featured on Samye Translations.
