Venerable Tenzin Namjong: Solving All The World’s Problems with the Golden Light Sutra (Online)

Celebrate the New (Tibetan) Year with the Days of Miracles!

February 23, 2026 @ 9.00pm IST

Online Event


The holy Golden Light Sutra is the king of the sutras. It is extremely powerful and fulfills all one’s wishes, as well as bringing peace and happiness for all sentient beings, up to enlightenment. It is also extremely powerful for world peace, for your own protection and for the protection of the country and the world. Also, it has great healing power for people in the country… This also protects individuals and the country from what are labeled natural disasters of the wind element, fire element, earth element and water element, such as earthquakes, floods, cyclones, fires, tornadoes, etc.

Lama Zopa Rinpoche

Therefore, with all the problems facing the world, it is extremely beneficial to recite this  sutra during the days of miracles.

As Lama Zopa Rinpoche says, “I would like to make this request with my two palms together, to please recite the Sutra of Golden Light for world peace as much as you can.”

Venerable Tenzin Namjong will give an introduction of the sutra and then will give instructions on how to make the recitation of the sutra a complete practice. He will also lead a recitation of the sutra so that people around the world can help bring the tremendous benefits to the various countries of the participants as well as to fulfill the wishes of Lama Zopa Rinpoche.

For more information about the sutra, please see:

  • King of Glorious Sutras: Sutra of Golden Light – PDF – Mandala Magazine, Issue One 2020
  • Recite the Golden Light Sutra for World Peace – PDF – Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s advice on the practice.

About Tushita

Tushita is a centre for the study and practice of Buddhism from the Tibetan Mahayana tradition. We're located in Northern India, in the forested hills above the town of McLeod Ganj, Dharamsala - the seat in exile of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

Tushita aims to provide a friendly and conducive environment for people of all nationalities and backgrounds to learn about and put into practice the teachings of the Buddha. With this in mind we offer regular drop-in events and courses on introductory Buddhist philosophy and meditation, as well as intermediate level courses and group retreats for more experienced students.
