The twenty-one taras is a sublime chanting meditation and praise of the forms of the female Bodhisattva Tara, each one a contemplation of all the forms of compassion ranging from gentle to fierce. This event explores the outer, inner and secret meaning of the twenty-one taras.
This will be a joyous celebration in honor of our beloved Pema Khandro Rinpoche’s birthday.
Donate below any amount to celebrate Pema Khandro’s birthday and mission to help the Buddhist Teachings flourish.
