The Festival celebrates the birth of Buddha and the diversity of our multicultural and multi-faith society, through a curated programme offering traditional Buddhist Ceremonies, and activations, music, performances, spiritual wellbeing puja, and blessing ceremonies. We will pray for peace and harmony in our lives and on Earth. May Buddha bless everyone and keep them healthy and safe.

As Marpa Rinpoche said:

Kagyu school in the snow mountains,

There is the stream of blessings of lineage masters,

There is the stream of oral transmission of unbroken lineage,

There is the stream of hearing lineage of profound pith instructions,

There is the stream of realization of essence of meditation.

The precious Avlokiteshvara Puja is within Martsang Kagyu system which includes Avlokiteshvara offering, Refuge and so on. It is a prayer for the deceased, increased fearlessness and longevity.

Guru devotion practice specific to the Martsang Kagyu Tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, which invites all of the precious lineage masters and requests blessings to assist us on our path to enlightenment.

The practice of the Medicine Buddha within Martsang Kagyu actualises prayers that the Medicine Buddha made in the past to bring happiness by bringing about causes for enlightenment, appeasing problems, satisfying good wishes, and helping those in a state of distress due to illness.
