Lots of news to rejoice in, in this Saka Dawa month 🙏🙏🙏

This month’s newsletter brings you news, opportunities, and reasons to rejoice.

Saka Dawa month is upon us, starting on May 17 and continuing through May 31 on Saka Dawa Duchen, one of the four great days of the Tibetan calendar, each of which celebrates an anniversary of Shakyamuni Buddha’s display of extraordinarily powerful deeds for the sake of sentient beings.

In this month’s enews you will find practice advice from Lama Zopa Rinpoche for this merit-making occasion, information about the powerful and successful launch of the 2026 Global MANI Retreat on May 17, and details of prayers and practices offered by thousands of ordained Sangha on behalf of the entire FPMT organization for the benefit of all beings on Saka Dawa—and how you can take part in all of these opportunities. And of course, much more, including stories for rejoicing, opportunities for study, service, and practice; new and updated resources available to you; and changes within the FPMT organization.

🙏Please continue to read this month’s enews in its entirety!

🙏🪷🙏

An unprecedented global merit-making effort is nearing commencement!

The regional and national coordinators of FPMT are working with FPMT International Office and Retreat Coordinator Selina Foong to offer a Global MANI Retreat. This retreat will bring together our FPMT community on a scale we have not attempted before … a hugely exciting collective effort that we pray will promote even greater harmony, cohesion, and understanding among us all.

The retreat is scheduled to commence on the first day of Saka Dawa month (Sunday, May 17, 2026), and conclude on the final Buddha Day for this year, Lhabab Duchen (Sunday, November 1, 2026). Major online teachings will be offered throughout this period by high lamas, regional online group practice sessions will be available, and individual practice at home will be encouraged. Participants will also be invited to join the 100 Million MANI Retreat in Mongolia from August 20 to September 17, 2026. Upon the conclusion of this Global MANI Retreat, we will offer the total number of MANI mantras recited to His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

🙏Please read all of the details, find some important key points about the retreat, and all the resources you will need to join this global effort!
