Help our community reach this year's goal...
"Every single holy object – even a tiny one – becomes a field of merit for all sentient beings." Lama Zopa Rinpoche
Offerings
At Jamyang Buddhist Centre, your generosity can help create something beautiful: daily offerings that generate merit and blessings for all beings. Every flower, water bowl, and stick of incense is offered with care, on behalf of our entire community.
Our new 2025 Dharma Offerings Fund connects our students, practitioners and community with the heart practices of Jamyang - puja, prayer and daily offerings made on behalf of all beings, and for the Jamyang community in particular.
Every week Geshe Namdak leads pujas and prayers, where the traditional offerings of saffron water, flowers, incense, light, perfume, food, music and tormas are made. Each week a team of local and residential volunteers take time in preparing these offerings along with daily waterbowl offerings.
Now we are creating an opportunity to practice generosity, so our community can connect and offer with us; the new Dharma Offerings Fund.
The puja and prayer calendar is full of meritorious activity, designed to clear obstacles and create beneficial conditions for Dharma practice and study, so that Jamyang can be as beneficial as possible to all beings:
We also practice Lama Chopa with Tsog offerings twice a month in accordance with the Tibetan astrological calendar. This practice celebrates and honours our Dharma Teachers and Spiritual Friends.
Specific Deity pujas are also performed privately throughout the year, again to create merit and remove obstacles for Jamyang's activities and for you, our community.
Donate to the Dharma Offering Fund: directly connect with these practices, where your generosity benefits all.
Holy Objects
Lama Zopa Rinpoche emphasised again and again the incredible power of holy objects to benefit the mind and create the causes for enlightenment. “Even seeing a holy object,” he taught, “becomes the cause of liberation—not just once, but for however many beings see it.”
At Jamyang, our statues, thangkas, and ritual items not only support meditation and puja—they are fields of merit, sources of blessing, and expressions of devotion. When you support this fund, you help to preserve and create the sacred energy that uplifts and transform countless minds.
Our Holy Objects are acquired to support practice and benefit all, this year we have:
- Welcomed The Victorious White Parasol deity statue to Jamyang. The Statue was bless by Khandro Rinpoche on her visit to London this year and was originally sourced from an artisanal handicrafts statue maker in Kathmandu (the same statue maker Lama Zopa Rinpoche worked with sourcing statues for Kopan Monastery).
- Offered a Guru Buddha Shakyamuni statue to Khandro Tseringma Rinpoche on her visit to London earlier this year.
- Sourced a Yamantaka statue for Yangten Rinpoche, in anticipation of his visit to London later this year.
When asked about the most recent statue at Jamyang, Geshe Namdak advised:
"Please encourage the community to offer prayers for the removal of obstacles to the enlightenment of all sentient beings, for Jamyang to be of the greatest benefit, for personal success in practice, and for world peace, as well as for the resolution of conflicts and the pacification of natural disasters. This is the reason for acquiring the statue."
Make a contribution to the Dharma Offering Fund today, and join us in the joyful practice of generosity in making prayers and offerings to the Buddhas, The Bhodisattavas, our teachers and our community, on behalf of all.
