Join us to celebrate Pema Khandros’s Birthday

The 21 Taras are the 21 different manifestations of the female bodhisattva Tara, each with unique attributes, colors, and names representing the various aspects of compassion. This powerful chanting meditation is practiced through a set of 21 praises dedicated to all the forms of compassion ranging from gentle to fierce.  It is a rare gift to be able to practice Praises to the 21 Taras in the presence of the 3 jewels, which we will do tonight!

Be our guest at this joyous celebration in honor of our beloved Pema Khandro Rinpoche’s birthday!

Every year, Pema Khandro requests that any gifts of appreciation be made as monetary donations to her favorite non-profit organization, the Buddhist Studies Institute! Even if you cannot join the celebration tonight, you can still dedicate your appreciation gift by clicking the Donate button below.

Thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to seeing you for a full schedule of classes in 2025!

Warm Holiday Regards,

The Team at the Buddhist Studies Institute
