Important December Dharma Dates including exciting empowerment events: 2022

    Buddha Weekly Monthly Dharma Dates

    As part of our mission to Spread the Dharma, we’ve tried to publicize important Dharma practice dates across all the traditions — Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana over the last ten years. We’ve diligently attempted to convert all lunar dates to western calendar dates for ease-of-use. Lunar calendars can be confusing — especially since there are three systems: lunisiderial, lunisolar, and pure lunar. The lunar monthly Dharma dates are in the “top deck” below.

    This month, by popular request, we’ve also added some exciting Empowerment and Teaching events in December — the key requirement being that they are live Zoom events. You’ll find these on the second deck of events below.

    Tara is not a static concept. Instead of a seated Buddha, we think of her as a dynamic action heroine, the karma goddess helping and rescuing beings.
