Lhapso Puja is a significant event in the Sherpa community. It is an annual celebration that brings together Sherpas from around the world. The event is marked by special ceremonies and teachings, often led by senior monks or Rinpoches.

During the Lhapso Puja, Rinpoche provides long life empowerments, teachings, and Chewang about the Dakini. The Dakini is a term used in Buddhism to refer to a type of deity or supernatural being. The teachings and empowerments provided during the Lhapso Puja are intended to guide and bless the Sherpa community.

The Lhapso Puja is celebrated in various locations around the world. The Sherpa Association UK also organizes a Lhapso Puja which is held at BCCUK.

So, Lhapso Puja is not just a celebration, but also a day of spiritual practice and community gathering. It’s a day when Sherpas focus on their cultural heritage and spiritual growth
