On the four great wheel days merit is said to be multiplied by practice and good deeds. Lhabab Düchen celebrates the Buddha’s descent from heaven. We will meet at Temescal Canyon under the old oak tree near the parking lot for a short tsok. The crickets will be released by the creek nearby. Please bring a cushion and arrive early with food and drink for the ritual feast. How many crickets released will depend on both how much is contributed and how many crickets are available for purchase on that particular day. Crickets are sold as live food for snakes and other reptiles. We endeavor to give them a better chance at survival.

Lama Tenzin Samphel and sangha at Temescal Canyon for tsok and cricket release.
