This year the annual Guhyasamaja ritual ceremony of Namgyal Monastery was began on 14th of May with ground ritual, followed by construction of colored sand mandala for three days. The ceremony is headed by the monastery’s ritual master Ven. Lobsang Tender.
The actual ritual ceremony of the Guhyasamaja ritual began on 13th of fourth month of Tibetan lunar calendar (19th of May). We are so honoured and fortunate with the presence of his Holiness the Dalai Lama, who attended the puja on the third day and blessed the ceremony.
Next day ritual master and four monks will take the sand collected in a pot for Nagar puja at the river side and will offer the sand into the river.
