[UD News] Thousand Offerings of Uṣṇīṣavijayā


Completely Victorious in Battling the Lord of Death

A Marpa Tradition Sādhana of Uṣṇīṣavijaya Together with
the Thousand-Offerings compiled by HH Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang Rinpoché

We will be gathering as a community to perform the Thousand-Offerings of Uṣṇīṣavijayā (Namgyal Tongchö) on the weekend of August 2 & 3.


You are cordially invited to join us in person at our temple is Asheville, NC or via Zoom. Please register NOW at: https://udharmanc.com/thousand-offerings/

We will send out the PDF file for this practice to all registered participants. This is a special Uṣṇīṣavijayā practice composed by His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Tinlé Lhundup towards the end of 2021 as the world was re-opening from COVID lockdowns.

We will be dedicating this very special weekend to the pacification of wars, turmoil, conflict—all outer and inner suffering everywhere in the world. This offering is also dedicated to the longevity, health and bodhisattva-deeds of HH the Dalai Lama, HH the Drikung Kyabgons, and all such spiritual guides. May they remain long in this world for the benefit of all beings!
