  • Chanted prayers

people-prayingThe chanted prayers at Buddha Land Centre are a chance to help bring peace to this world though prayer and meditation.

Dedicated to world peace these chanted prayers are the perfect method to bring our meditation practice to life. By engaging in these prayers for the benefit of all we can pacify our inner obstacles, gather the necessary internal conditions for realizations and receive the inspiration of pure beings. In this way we can bring lasting peace to our troubled world.

Heart Jewel Puja

Held 5 days a week – please consult puja timetable
(1 hour)

By engaging in the Guru Yoga practised in conjunction with Je Tsongkhapa we can purify negativity, accumulate merit, receive blessings, and attain a very special compassion, wisdom, and spiritual strength. By relying upon the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden we can overcome obstacles to our practice and create favourable conditions. These two practices are the very essence of Kadampa Buddhism. This puja includes a 15-minute silent meditation.

We use the prayer booklet, ‘Heart Jewel,’ for this puja. If you want to buy your own copy you can purchase it online; an electronic version of the booklet is available as well as the paper version – https://tharpa.com/uk/heart-jewel-booklet.html

Wishfulfilling Jewel Puja

Fridays at 7.30pm & Saturdays at 5pm
(1 hour)

Wishfulfilling Jewel is a slightly more extensive version of the Heart Jewel prayers, prayers to the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden.

On Fridays we engage in this practice with tsog offerings (offerings of food to enlightened beings; if you would like to make such an offering please bring vegetarian food) – a method for transforming our daily activities into a spiritual path.

We use the prayer booklet, ‘Wishfulfilling Jewel,’ for this puja. If you want to buy your own copy you can purchase it online; an electronic version of the booklet is available as well as the paper version – https://tharpa.com/uk/wishfulfilling-jewel-booklet-532.html

Offering to Spiritual Guide

Held on the 10th and 25th of each month
(1 hour 35)

‘Offering to the Spiritual Guide’ puja is a special chanted prayer requesting our Spiritual Guide to increase our compassion, wisdom and spiritual power.

This practice includes a tsog offering. For tsog pujas, we gather together to pray and make special offerings. You are welcome to bring a vegetarian food offering if you wish.

We use the prayer booklet, ‘Offering to the Spiritual Guide,’ for this puja. If you want to buy your own copy you can purchase it online – https://tharpa.com/uk/offering-to-the-spiritual-guide-booklet.html

An electronic verson of the booklet is available as well as the paper version.

Tara Puja – Liberation from Sorrow

Held on 8th of each month
(50 minutes)

Tara is a female Buddha, a manifestation of the ultimate wisdom of all the Buddhas. Her name means “Rescuer” because she rescues us from all outer and inner fears. Ultimately she rescues us from all suffering and guides us to full enlightenment. Like a mother she protects us from all internal and external dangers; she provides us with all the necessary conditions for our spiritual training, and guides us and inspires us with her blessings as we progress along the spiritual path. These prayers include praises to the 21 manifestations of Tara.

We use the prayer booklet, ‘Liberation from Sorrow,’ for this puja. If you want to buy your own copy you can purchase it online – https://tharpa.com/uk/liberation-from-sorrow.html. An electronic verson of the booklet is available as well as the paper version. Also, the sadhana is included in ‘Modern Buddhism’ which is available as a free download.
