Please note: Registration for the 2026 Annual Yamantaka Jangwa finished on 26 August 2026. Thank you to all who registered dedications and sponsorship. We pray that all of your wishes are fulfilled according to the holy Dharma. We are not accepting further dedications at this time. The next annual puja is the Yamantaka Fire Puja in September 2026.

 

About This Year's Puja

We have requested our root monastery, FPMT’s Kopan Monastery in Nepal, to perform this year’s Yamantaka Jangwa Puja for the DCI community. The puja will be performed by eight to ten tantric monks at Kopan.

DCI will sponsor all of the puja offerings and ritual ingredients, as well breakfast, tea, and cash offerings for the tantric monks performing the puja.

We welcome you to participate in this year’s puja through sponsoring names for dedication. Please register your names for dedication using the sponsorship form by 26 August 2026 to be included.

What is a Jangwa Puja?

This is a powerful annual puja to benefit both the living and those who have passed away. This puja has two parts, the first part is performed to benefit the living (purifying obstacles, illness, disease, etc.) and the second part is to benefit those who have died anytime in the past (to be reborn in a pure land or find a perfect human rebirth, purify all negativities and meet the Dharma teachings and qualified Dharma teachers).

Sponsorship and Dedications

We welcome you to sponsor this year’s Jangwa Puja and include names for dedication. On the registration form there are two sections for names for dedication: a section for names of living persons and/or families and a section for names of deceased persons.

This puja is by donation. The Deadline to Register Names for Dedication is 26 August 2026. All dedications need to be received by this date to be included. Thank you!

We will send Kopan a list of all of the names of individuals and families for whom the puja has been sponsored. We will have two lists of names for dedication, a list of living persons and a list of deceased persons. (For simplicity we will not include photos of the deceased persons this year.)

We will request the following dedications for all of the names of living persons:

We dedicate that all of their wishes are fulfilled in accordance with the holy Dharma. May they be free of all suffering and obstacles, enjoy excellent health, well-being, happiness and success, especially success with their Dharma practice and realisations of the path to enlightenment. May all of the Buddha’s wishes for each of them be fulfilled.

We will request the following dedications for all of the deceased persons:

We dedicate that they always enjoy excellent rebirths in either a pure land or a perfect human rebirth with all of the ideal conditions to develop their minds in true paths to happiness and swiftly achieve enlightenment. May all of the Buddha’s wishes for each of them be fulfilled.
