DESCRIPTION:  \nAll welcome\, food (unopened) and flower offerings welcome. \nThe Guru Puja practice consists of making offerings to and requesting inspiration from the Spiritual Master\, seen as the embodiment of the Three Jewels\, who is visualised in the form of Lama Tsong Khapa surrounded by the merit field. Spiritual vows and commitments which might have degenerated are also restored through the practice of the tsog (feast offering). We unite our minds with the holy mind of the Spiritual Master\, who is considered the root and life-force of the spiritual path\, to receive blessings to generate realisations on the path to enlightenment.
