Spring Festival 2026 Day 3
May 25, 2026
In Condensed Heruka Root Tantra Buddha says:
You should never abandon Highest Yoga Tantra,
But realize that it has inconceivable meaning
And is the very essence of Buddhadharma.
In his Sutra teachings Buddha gives us great encouragement to accomplish the ultimate goal of human life. This goal will be accomplished quickly through the practice of Tantra. Tantra, also known as ‘Secret Mantra’ or ‘Vajrayana’, is a special method to purify our world, our self, our enjoyments and our activities; and if we put this method into practice we shall very quickly attain enlightenment.
From the book Modern Buddhism by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
This precious and pure lineage of Tantric teachings is transmitted to us by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. Through the great kindness of our supreme Spiritual Guide modern people can attain enlightenment quickly within one lifetime.
It's another beautiful day at the Festival. It's warm and sunny, and the atmosphere is happy, relaxed and very blessed. We start the day with beautiful Amitayus prayers and this is followed by a series of extraordinary teachings from Gen-la Khyenrab giving deep insight into the practice alongside practical teachings from The New Eight Steps
