Tshethar Ritual 23rd July 2021

Offering the Gift of Life
Ritual with Tulku Khyungdor Rinpoche


In Tibetan Tshethar means “giving freedom” and is formed by the syllables “Tshe” – life and “Thar” – liberation. In the Buddhist Mahayana tradition, offering sentient beings the gift of life in freedom is an act of generosity

that requires compassion and wisdom and strengthens one’s own life force: By helping others one helps oneself.

With this motivation, animals endangered with death – in this case brown trout – are bought from local fish farmers and released into freedom.

Also this year the Tshethar Ritual will take place in the beautiful surrounding of the Gautinger Schlosspark . During the ceremony Tulku Khyungdor Rinpoche will recite special Mantras and Dharanis, which serve the life force of the liberated animals. Through the power of the ceremony, the brown trout receive the blessing and empowerment for their new life in freedom. These recitations also have a vitalizing effect on visitors, especially those who contribute to the liberation.

We invite you to participate with the whole family in a very special Buddhist puja in the midst of nature and experience the benefits of this ancient ritual. The blessed fish are then released into their new life in the little river Würm. Guests have the opportunity to participate actively by purchasing a desired number of fish and symbolically releasing them into freedom. The purchase of the fish at the price of three euros per piece is possible in advance with the registration. The fish are bred locally and transported species-appropriate.

You will receive further information about the ritual and free purchase of the fish with the registration via the registration form. Among other things, the current regulations of the Infection Protection Act apply. In order to be able to react to changes at short notice, we would like to ask you to leave your full contact details.
