This event celebrates two Kagyu lineage masters, the translator Marpa and Tibet’s beloved yogi saint, Milarepa. Lord Marpa (b. 1012) translated teachings he received in India into Tibetan. The life of his student, Milarepa, continues to inspire people to develop renunciation of samsara and devotion to the Dharma.
The anniversary days of Mila and Marpa fall on 4th and 5th of March respectively. It is a wonderful time for us to make supplication towards our lineage masters and to receive blessings and inspirations from both of them. They have showed us the way and they can be important guides along our path to enlightenment. Thus, I wish each of you will reflect upon the kind deeds of both Marpa and Milarepa and earnestly make good wishes to attain realization within this very moment.Do join us in celebrating the anniversaries of both these great masters.
