Tsedrup at Namo Buddha

This Tsedrup (Long Life Puja) took place at Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery in Namo Buddha from November 13th - 19th. The puja was held each day in the main shrine hall. On the morning of the last day, Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche bestowed the empowerment of Amitayus to more than three thousand disciples, which was also the auspicious day of Lhabab Dhuchen (Buddhas decent from Tushita Heaven). In the afternoon, the activities moved outside to the rooftop of the Branch School, where there was a procession, Cham (lama dancing), and some clowns to entertain those gathered for the event.
