Puget Park - Puget Park Planting Party …01/14/2023

Activities

The Marici Fellowship and Christine Clark will be hosting a Tibetan Prayer and Planting Park in Puget Park. Our event will start with a few Tibetan Monks doing an amazing chant, prayer, and blessing of Puget Park. Afterwards we would love for all to join in planting a variety of plants through out the park. The Monks will be blessing plants and helping out as well. Come, it will be magical.

The Marici Fellowship is based out of the Sakya Monastery of Tibetan Buddhism in the Greenwood neighborhood of Seattle. According to Teresa Lamb of the fellowship, in Tibetan monasteries and Buddhist sites all over the world sacred buildings called stupas or chortens are built as a symbol of the mind of the Buddha although there are many meanings. Many prayers and blessings exist in these locations. H.E. Avikrita Vajra Sakya, the Head lama, wanted to make it so these sacred, blessed places exist not only in structures far away but in the form of a living monument—such as a tree.
