Weekly digest: Happy Vesak or Saga-dava month
This was a short week but it’s very important because of Saga-dava (ས་ག་ཟླ་བ།) month or Vesak (བི་ཤཱ་ཁཿ བཻ་ཤཱ་ཁ།) has started on May, 9th. This is a month when Buddah was born, enlightened and died or achieved paranirvana. For me most of this week was mostly devoted to practice and learning Buddhist wisdom.
- I finished introductory part of “Lam rim marathon” course from FPMT.
- I started to read “Lam rim udon” in both Russian and Tibetam.
- I practice a lot, donate to Buddhist organisations and trying my best to follow the path.
- I’ve created a roadmap for Lama Bot.
- I’ve updated my altar: changed the book to “Lan Rim U Don” and added a couple more offerings.
