“May I be like Medicine Buddha forever and be most beneficial to all sentient beings. All sentient beings who see, hear, remember or touch me, just by that, may all their sufferings of body and mind be completely healed. May they find faith in karma and devotion to Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, and may they actualize loving kindness, compassion and bodhicitta. May their negative karma created since beginningless rebirths be purified.”

Bodhgaya is not only the place where the Buddha showed the holy deed of achieving enlightenment under the bodhi tree but also where all the great pandits such as Nagarjuna and Asanga practiced and made so many prayers.

These actually performed and mentally performed light offerings, the manifestations of one's own innate awareness, Dharmakaya, these clouds of offerings equalling the infinite sky, I am offering to all the gurus and Three Sublime Ones, and to the statues, stupas and scriptures, which are the guru.

✨Full Moon Candle Offering🕯️

Make a donation to the Great Stupa in an amount of your choosing, to be a part of the collective light offerings made at the next full moon in front of the sacred Jade Buddha of Universal Peace.

According to the Tibetan calendar, the full moon is a powerful time connected to the Medicine Buddha, associated with healing for both body and mind.

You are invited to submit your name, or the name of a loved one, to be placed alongside the light offerings.
Please ensure your message is written exactly as you wish it to appear.
A photo of the messages will be sent to you after they have been placed on the altar of the Jade Buddha.
