Chinese 25th, M-T-K 25th. Tiger, Li, Green 4. Dakini Day. This is also Veteran's Day in the United States. Naturally, we dedicate our practice to all sentient beings, but we can also particularly dedicate our practice to veterans today. Nothing wrong with that at all. You know, the thought comes to me that since we couldn't put up prayer flags on Lha Bab Duchen, this is not a bad day to put up prayer flags.

i have a question regarding my obstacle year coming up- year of the tiger. my first question is does my obstacle year begin with my birthday in december or does it begin with losar?
ReplyDeletealso, perhaps it's too complex for you to respond to, but could you advise me or offer a helpful suggestion or person i may contact as to what practices are best, or where to obtain an amulet for the obstacle year? please email me if you don't mind.
thank you for your kindness~
Can you tell me why you believe it is your obstacle year? You are born in the year of the tiger, so you believe the tiger year is your obstacle year? If you send your birth date, maybe we will have a quick look, just for fun.
ReplyDeletei was born on a monday, in the year of the water tiger. i'm not sure of the exact time, but i did consult a tibetan astrologer a few years ago, who had a monk as translator and he told me about my obstacle year, but told me very little about what can be done. i suppose he thought it might be best if i asked a Lama (or geshe) what would be the best practices for me to do.
ReplyDeletei'd be grateful for any useful advise or suggestions.
thanks~
i guess i should assume that your birth year is not necessarily the same as your "obstacle year" then.
ReplyDeletemy birthdate is:
10 december 1962
