Intro to Buddhist Puja: Meaning, Purpose, and Practice

3 Tuesdays: May 5, 19, & 26 | 7:00pm – 8:30pm PDT | Online Only

Puja is an essential practice in the Tibetan lineage of Buddhism and a powerful way to cultivate merit, purify negativities, and deepen our connection with the Three Jewels. At Ocean of Compassion Buddhist Center, pujas such as Medicine Buddha Puja, Cittamani Tara Puja, and Lama Chopa with Tsog are offered regularly to support the community’s spiritual growth.

This course offers a clear and approachable introduction to the meaning, purpose, and methods of Buddhist puja—both in group settings and at home.

In this course, you will explore:

  • What puja is and the meaning of common pujas offered at OCBC

  • The benefits of engaging in puja, individually and collectively

  • How to choose a puja based on your needs and intentions

  • How to set up a simple puja altar and practice with confidence

Ven. Angie will also share how pujas support the spiritual path, relate to purification and merit-making, and create powerful conditions for healing, protection, and spiritual growth.
