About Group Practices & Sutra Recitations
We believe practice is not about getting it right, but showing up with an open mind. You do not need to be a Buddhist or have any prior experience to join our chanting or sutra reading groups. We provide all the prayer texts, phonetics, and comfortable seating in our Domlur hall, so you can simply walk in and join the rhythm of the group.
These group sessions are the heartbeat of our centre. When we practice together, the combined intention amplifies the merit and peace we generate. We host a variety of sessions, from the profound reading of the Diamond Cutter Sutra to prostrations and mantra recitations. These are not lectures, but experiential spaces designed to clear obstacles and cultivate a calm, focused mind.
What to Expect
Our sessions are open to everyone. If you are new to chanting, we provide digital and printed prayer aids with English phonetics so you can follow along easily. You will find a mix of people, from complete beginners to long-time students, all sitting together. We focus on the spirit of the practice rather than perfection.
Hybrid Participation
We understand that life in Bangalore can be busy. For those who cannot make it to our Domlur centre, we offer hybrid access via Zoom for many of our group practices. This allows you to join from home and remain connected to our Dharma Family wherever you are.
Our Approach
All practices are rooted in the Tibetan Mahayana tradition. Whether we are reciting the 35 Buddhas for purification or engaging in a Medicine Buddha healing ritual, the goal is always to cultivate compassion and wisdom. We operate on a donation-only basis and no one is ever turned away for lack of funds. Your presence is the most important offering you can bring.
