His Eminence Garchen Rinpoche is offering the Bodhisattva Vow on his 85th birthday early tomorrow morning.  Rinpoche is a very high master in the Drikung Kagyu lineage and among the last generation of masters trained in Tibet.  This is a very precious opportunity to receive this vow from one of our greatest living masters.

The Garchen Institute website explains the vow this way:

“The Bodhisattva Vow can only be taken after you have taken the Refuge Vow.  This vow represents our commitment to the altruistic intent; to the courageous heart which places others before self and seeks enlightenment to benefit all sentient beings.  In taking this vow, we commit to love and compassion as our path.”
