NAMKHA  Teaching & Workshop 

with Geshe Dangsong Namgyal & Geshe Yungdrung Kalzang

JOIN US TO LEARN ABOUT AND MAKE YOUR OWN THREAD-CROSS [NAMKHA]. 

SCHEDULE: short purification ritual, teaching, lunch and thread-cross workshop.

​

In the Bön and Vajrayana Buddhist traditions, the namkhas are constructed for elemental balance, an offering, or a dwelling for a deity during ritual practice. It’s traditionally made with colored threads symbolic of the elements—blue, green, red, white, and yellow; space, air, fire, water, and earth respectively. (You may have seen similar-looking indigenous works called God’s Eye). 

​

Namkha means space in Tibetan. In the Himalayan regions of Zhang Zhung, the early biographies of Buddha Tonpa Shenrab tell of how, when traveling in Tibet to retrieve stolen horses, he taught the construction of thread-cross or namkha, as a way of making offerings to the deities.
