So there is a plenty to celebrate. Let us also not forget that today actions are 100 million times stronger, so let's celebrate hard. Take those 8 vows, fire up your malas and don't let your cushions get cold. Time to party (practice) like there is no tomorrow.Lhabab Duchen is the anniversary of the day that the Buddha descended from the God Realm of the Thirty-three where he had been teaching his mother the Dharma. The Buddha had been away for three months, and his return was a joyous occasion for countless disciples.
Lhabab Duchen is a Tibetan word, literally, “the great occasion of divine descent.” It’s one of the four main holy days of the Buddhist calendar when we celebrate the Buddha’s life and teachings.

Dear Dharmawheelers I wish you all a happy Lhabab Duchen!

For those who do virtuous actions,
goodness is what comes to pass.
For those who do non-virtuous actions,
that becomes suffering indeed.
