Kagyu Mönlam 2021 - Declarations, Donations and Practice
Dear Dharma friends,
From 08. to 14. December, the Kagyu Monlam 2021 will again take place in various monasteries and around the world.
On 05. December, Khenpo Rinpoche will give explanations on the practice of "Ways of Striving" on the occasion of the Kagyu Monlam. The teaching will be in Tibetan with English translation and, as always, will be broadcast on Karma Samphel Ling's Youtube channel.
During the Kagyu Monlam there will again be a Puja for the deceased. The puja that Gyalwa Karmapa does for the deceased helps all beings in the bardo to overcome obstacles and attain a good rebirth.
We have again set up a form to collect names of the deceased and forward them collectively. Please enter the names by 08. December 2021 at the latest. We will not be able to forward names entered later. If you have already added names to the list in previous years, you do not need to do so again.

It is also possible to donate, the donations will be transferred to the Kagyu Monlam Committee in Rumtek. The purpose of this year's donations is to further replenish the fund for the financial security of future Kagyu Monlams. So every donation helps to ensure that the monlam in Bodhgaya can take place again in the future.
