HAPPY GURU RINPOCHE DAY AND TSOG (Tsok): Usually, anyone can attend public Tsog or make offerings to the Dakas and Dakinis on these auspicious days: the 10th an...d 25th days of each lunar month. Making offerings is always meritorious. Tsog is a practice commitment for many Higher Yogic practitioners. Practicing the Tsog twice a month renews our Samaya (vows) and purifies our negative karmas. The food is first blessed, transforming the offering from mundane to suitable visualized offerings of uncontaminated nectar. This is then offered, one by one, to the Yidams, Guru, Dakinis and Protectors, Three Jewels, and all beings of the six realms: "HO! In order to please this assembly of the root and lineage gurus, the Yidams, the Three Jewels, and the ocean of dakinis and oath-bound protectors, together with the beings of the six realms who have been my mothers, I present this blessed offering of inseparable bliss and void."
