Practising Tsok Meaningfully
The practice of tsok is primarily a practice of offering, but also a very powerful method for healing our spiritual connection with our master and fellow practitioners. Through the practice of tsok offering, we swiftly and effortlessly accumulate merit and wisdom, and purify our obscurations, which is the essence of the path to buddhahood.
Sogyal Rinpoche has encouraged all Rigpa students to celebrate tsok together twice a month: on the tenth day (Guru Rinpoche Day) and the twenty-fifth day (Dakini Day) of the Tibetan month.
In particular, if we have received any Vajrayana or Dzogchen empowerments and teachings, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche always said that even if you cannot do a lot of practice, at least on the 10th day and the 25th day, you should do a good practise of tsok.
Always try to attend your local Rigpa centre to practise Tendrel Nyesel tsok with the sangha on these days. If this is not possible, then make sure to do a tsok practice on your own.
