On Buddhist shrines, offerings are made to the enlightened beings. Seven bowls of water are the most commonly made offerings. These offerings have special meaning, representing seven traditional offerings made to revered guests: water for drinking, water for bathing, flowers, incense, light, perfume and food. There is also an eighth offering, music, which is not represented by a physical substance but is offered when we chant prayers.
You can learn how to make these offerings at various classes at Heruka Center, or you can learn by joining our Shrine Offering Team. The members of the Shrine Offering Team make the water offerings on the Center's shrine - each person has one day a week that is their day to make the offerings. To learn more about this opportunity you can visit our Shrine Offering Team page or contact Rosemary at info@meditateinfortcollins.org.
The below group practices are traditional chanted prayers that are accompanied by "tsog" offerings, a blessed food offering. Everyone is welcome! No experience required. If you wish, bring a small vegetarian food offering. These are special opportunities to enjoy Sangha community and celebrate our faith.
