FIRE PUJA (MAR 8, 2009)
The resident community officially ended the three-month Manjushri retreat with a Dorje Khadro Fire Puja after a day of activities and celebration with friends and supporters.

The scorpion that embodies all of our negativities.
 We set up a Dorje Khadro altar in the snow.
 Venerable Tarpa and Kevin light the fire.
 We all take time to contemplate the past three months, what we want to let go of and purify.
 With a bright end to the retreat, some of us squinted while others wore sunglasses.
