Six Tibetan Buddhist monks from the Gaden Shartse Monastery, exiled in Southern India, will return to South Lake Tahoe June 23-30.

They will put on a slide show of monastic life, conduct various Buddhist philosophy teachings and discussions, a Green Tara Empowerment, and a Vajravidarin Healing Ritual over the eight-day visit. They will also offer healings, teachings, and cultural performances including an evening of music and exchange.

Business blessings, house blessings, land blessings, and personal healings are available by appointment.

The Gaden Sharste Monastery was originally founded in Tibet in the mid 1400s and remained an institution of philosophical study prior to its destruction in 1959 when China invaded Tibet. This visit is hosted by the Tahoe Tibetan Cultural Exchange and the South Lake Tahoe Community.

For more information or to schedule a blessing, or personal healing, contact Melanie at TahoeMel@gmail.com.

    Where is this happening in SLT? In the past, I believe there were Tibetan Monk demonstrations at Valhalla…
