Dear friends,
Benchen Phuntsok Ling will celebrate the birthday of Yangsi Tenga Rinpoche on December 14.
Under the guidance of Lama Ngawang Tsultrim a White Tara Tsok Puja will be practiced.
Since this is a Vajrayana practice you should have already received the White Tara empowerment to participate. Otherwise you can just listen to what is going on but you must not read the text.
Date: Thursday, December 14, 2023
Time: 19:30 CET
The session will be conducted as a Zoom meeting (about 90 minutes).
Details will be published in the BPL Newsletter.
For many years it has been a tradition that between Christmas and New Year in Benchen Phuntsok Ling the medium-long ritual of Mahakala Dorje Bernagchen is performed to remove obstacles for the coming year. 
Following the advice of our venerable teacher Tenga Rinpoche, we will again celebrate the prayer festival Mönlam (tib.: "smon lam") this year for the Tibetan New Year (Losar). 
These are the dates for the Summer Seminar 2024 in Benchen Phuntsok Ling in Allmuthen, Belgium.
Lama Ngawang Tsultrim will give explanations on the practice of GreenTara and will lead the meditation. It is said that Green Tara protects from all fears.
In the very beginning, on November 8, 1998, when Tenga Rinpoche decided to establish Benchen Phuntsok Ling, he wrote to his students: The intention or goal of buying a center is that everyone who has time can do retreat there for a few weeks or months, and that it will be a permanent place for summer courses in the summer. In the further future, courses on general Buddhist teachings and personal practice are planned, which will include the gradual path of the four preliminary practices, the practice of the creation and completion stages of the yidam (Kyerim/Dzogrim), the six yogas of Naropa, and the path of Mahamudra.
