A Mahayana Sutra emphasizing
healing, world peace, & protection
with Ven. Gyalten Chimé
Join our friends at the Wisdom Center of Santa Cruz for a recitation of the Golden Light Sutra.
Purpose of reciting this sutra:
During times of climate crisis, and social, political & economic instability in our country and around the world, we need a powerful practice. Reciting this holy sutra counters this harm while offering innumerable benefits.
Benefits from reciting the sutra:
The sutra is often read aloud in groups to build up positive force (“merit”) in our mindstreams, creating world peace, protecting one’s country, and averting natural disasters. Lama Zopa Rinpoche from FPMT made the heartfelt request for as many people as possible to recite this sutra to help relieve the suffering in the world and to support peace and prosperity.
We’ll watch a video on the Sutra & read sections of it with short discussions. Includes video teaching and reading of text on large screen.
