Commemorating Rinpoche’s 6th Parinirvana Anniversary
Tsem Rinpoche’s Parinirvana Anniversary is an annual prayer festival in Kechara Forest Retreat, attended by senior lamas of our lineage and monastic representatives from Shar Gaden, Serpom, Phelgyeling and Segyu. This year’s programme takes place from early August to early September 2025.
The importance of the Guru’s parinirvana anniversary
The lama’s parinirvana anniversary is a special time for Rinpoche’s disciples to reflect on our guru’s extraordinary compassion, enlightened activities, and to create the causes for his incarnation to manifest the great deeds of his previous lives.
We hope you will join us as visitor, volunteer or sponsor — to contribute and share in this celebration of Rinpoche’s life and deeds, as we embark on 5 weeks of holy activities.
