At the completion of the 3000 recitations of the Golden Light Sutra in May 2025, the
students at Tara Institute requested His Holiness the Dalai Lama to advise what
practice to do for the long life and good health of both His Holiness the Dalai Lama
and Venerable Geshe Doga.

Rejoice, students of Geshe Doga can now practice the following:

 

• White Tara Jenang

o On Sunday 20th July 10 am

 

• White Tara Long Life Sadhana at home or group practice days-

o The White Tara Sadhana group practice dates will be announced regularly throughout 2025 and will continue to be shared each year through 2028

• White Tara Mantra – 

o Goal is 10 million mantras by July 2028​

With deep devotion and respect, the students of Tara Institute humbly requested His Holiness to kindly recommend a Dharma practice that could be dedicated to the long life and continued good health of both our most revered teacher, Venerable Geshe Doga, and His Holiness himself.

In his boundless compassion, His Holiness has advised the students of Tara Institute to engage in the recitation of the sacred White Tara Mantra as a means of accumulating merit and creating conducive conditions for the long life and good health of Venerable Geshe Doga and His Holiness.

With sincere hearts and unwavering dedication, the Tara Institute community aspires to collectively accumulate 10 million recitations of the White Tara Mantra by July 2028.

For detailed guidance on how to engage in this meritorious practice, please contact: spc@tarainstitute.org.au.

May this practice bring vast benefit to all sentient beings and may the precious teachers remain with us for a very long time, continuing to turn the Wheel of Dharma.
