Rejoicing Festival
Let’s come together in honor of our precious teacher, Geshe Michael Roach, and his extraordinary teachings! On his birthday, December 17, 2024 we will uplift each other and our worlds with a first-of-its-kind 48-hour event—the Rejoicing Festival.
People who know the seed system and have put it into action are aware of the phenomenal power of rejoicing. As we are happy about goodness, goodness grows. In this spirit and with a big love for our teacher, we are orchestrating a worldwide online Rejoicing Festival to celebrate Geshe Michael and bring about our favorite intentions. The festival will take place for 48 consecutive hours so that every moment it is December 17th somewhere in the world a wise celebration of our beloved teacher and friend will be happening. You are invited to join in putting your heart and mind upon what dear Geshe Michael has taught about rejoicing practice and use this powerful practice to honor him and his teachings on this special day.
Experienced practitioners around the world will be guiding this special event. Let’s focus our hearts and minds on what we want to see more of in our worlds, and bring together a huge mass of sweet energy to honor our beloved teacher.
For 48-hours in a row experienced practitioners around the world are volunteering to lead open sessions to rejoice in the goodness we have done and have seen others do. Each session will have a theme that focuses on something we want to see more of in our worlds. You are invited to join as many sessions as you wish to attend. And bring your friends!
Drawing upon the teachings in rejoicing Geshe Michael has given and each person’s individual application of these profound truths, we will come together to share our stories, lessons and successes, and be happy with one another. We’ll celebrate our goals, from mastering meditation to creating a world of cooperation and peace, from having all the resources we need to bringing about loving relationships. Our coming together will focus a big energy on our goodness and our goals and help our teacher achieve his goals.
