Refuge Teachings and Refuge Ceremony
with Geshe Thubten Sherab
Sunday, January 9, 2022 10:00am – 11:30am: morning session 1:00pm – 2:30pm: afternoon session All times are PST (Pacific Standard Time). We are using the Zoom video conferencing system for this event. In the morning Geshe Sherab will give a teaching on refuge. What does it mean to “Take Refuge?” In the afternoon session, Geshela will answer questions and then offer the formal Refuge Ceremony for anyone who would like to take it for the first time, or renew it again. This is most often done in person, but given the times and the issues with travel, we are so grateful that Geshela is willing to offer this to us via Zoom.
