She had a thin long neck\, a huge belly and was always starving. When he tried to feed her\, the food he offered turned into burning coals as soon as it touched her tiny mouth. \nDistressed\, he sought Buddha’s advice on how best to liberate his mother from her unfortunate state. Buddha advised Maudgalyayana to make extensive offerings to the Sangha on the 15th day of the 7th month\, saying: \n\n\nYour mother’s offences are deep and firmly rooted. You alone do not have enough power… The awesome spiritual power of the assembled Sangha of the ten directions is necessary for liberation to be attained.\n\n\nThis was the beginning of the Buddhist Ullambana Festival. \nTraditional offerings at the Grand Ullambana Puja to overcome obstacles and attract favourable conditions. \n\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n												\n																					Ullambana candle and incense offerings at Kechara Forest Retreat\n										\n									\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n												\n																					Memorial tablets dedicated to the dearly departed\, unborn children and karmic debtors.\n										\n									\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			Ullambana Offerings		\n				\n				\n				\n							Remove obstacles and send great merits to those gone beyond and to the people who matter in your life.

When he tried to feed her\, the food he offered turned into burning coals as soon as it touched her tiny mouth. \nDistressed\, he sought Buddha’s advice on how best to liberate his mother from her unfortunate state. Buddha advised Maudgalyayana to make extensive offerings to the Sangha on the 15th day of the 7th month\, saying: \n\n\nYour mother’s offences are deep and firmly rooted.

SUMMARY:Vajrayogini Ruchok Purification Puja
DESCRIPTION:Protection\, wealth & merits for the 7th Lunar Month.		\n				\n				\n				\n							Buddha taught that the 7th Month Ullambana Festival is one of the best times to honour your dearly departed\, send blessings to loved ones\, and offer compassion to all suffering beings. This period for honouring ancestors shares many similarities with the Chinese Hungry Ghost Festival\, and is observed by Buddhists from all traditions with offerings of feasts and prayers for the deceased. Join us at the annual Ullambana Festival in Kechara Forest Retreat for special prayers and offerings\, and make the most of the auspicious Ullambana month from August 23 to September 21\, 2025. 						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			Event Details		\n				\n				\n				\n							\n 	 September 6\, 2025 (Sat)\n 	 10.00 am – 6.00 pm\n 	 Kechara Forest Retreat | Livestream\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n					\n		\n							\n		\n				\n						\n					\n			\n								\n				\n			Programme		\n				\n				\n				\n							\n 	10.00 am – Grand Ullambana Dzambala + Lama Chopa Puja\n 	3.00 pm – Grand Ullambana Dorje Shugden Trakze Puja\n 	5.30 pm – Offering Ceremony\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							The highlight of the Ullambana Festival is two powerful pujas on September 6 (Saturday) to generate merits and remove obstacles according to the tradition of Gaden Monastery. The morning starts with a Grand Ullambana Dzambala + Lama Chopa Puja to attract favourable situations\, generate tremendous merits\, and increase outer and inner wealth.In the afternoon\, there will be a Grand Ullambana Dorje Shugden Trakze Puja to avert obstacles\, protect from unseen beings\, and overcome the most difficult challenges.						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n			\n		\n				\n				\n				\n				\n							\nThe Origins of Ullambana\nAccording to the Ullambana Sutra\, Maudgalyayana\, one of Buddha Shakyamuni’s chief disciples\, saw with his clairvoyance that his beloved mother had been reborn as a Hungry Ghost (preta) in the lower realms. She had a thin long neck\, a huge belly and was always starving. When he tried to feed her\, the food he offered turned into burning coals as soon as it touched her tiny mouth. \nDistressed\, he sought Buddha’s advice on how best to liberate his mother from her unfortunate state. Buddha advised Maudgalyayana to make extensive offerings to the Sangha on the 15th day of the 7th month\, saying: \n\n\nYour mother’s offences are deep and firmly rooted.
