    Costs: Free admission but it is customary to offer a red packet with a donation of whatever amount you wish during the empowerment. Please obtain cash before hand as there is no ATM facility onsite.

    Getting there: best to use the Light Rail as parking is very limited locally and if the venue's parking becomes full it can be a real nuisance trying to find parking elsewhere. It is easy to catch a taxi using Uber, Lyft, Arro, Obi or similar. See https://english.tbsseattle.org/site/ceremony_place.

    Food: No food is provided due to venue restrictions. The venue has some food outlets and does NOT allow outside food to be brought in. Please either eat from the venue's restaurants or eat offsite. https://english.tbsseattle.org/site/venue_overview

    Wedding blessings - True Buddha School does NOT conduct marriages. You need to get married legally locally, such as with a registrar or other provider. You may then request that Grandmaster blesses your marriage to be auspicious, fulfilling and life-long. If you want to request this, please do so here: https://english.tbsseattle.org/weddingblessing?ref=CR_46IWQ9

    Bestowal of bodhisattva vows - the Bodhisattva vows relate to making the commitment to always work for the liberation of others. On one hand vows generate power and so one with them can make greater progress. On the other hand they are a serious commitment and shouldn't be taken flippantly. One should read over the Bodhisattva vows of TBS first as you'll need to memorise and live by them. If you're up for that, apply here: https://english.tbsseattle.org/receivingprecepts...

    Ordination of new monks/nuns - Contact your country's TBS Vajrayana Association or the True Buddha Foundation to apply. Too late for this ceremony.

    Grand calamity aversion, blessing and bardo deliverance - Grandmaster conducts a special type of ritual at these ceremonies. It looks similar to the dance of mudras we see him perform during homas, but without the fire homa. This is one of his biggest interventions in our bad karma, warding off many troubles that otherwise would have plagued us in the upcoming months. To gain this golden blessing, one should register for this here: https://english.tbsseattle.org/site/ceremony

    Teaching &amp; dharma transmission - Grandmaster has indicated that he will share some insights he had whilst on rest leave. Although the doctors told him to stay home for a bit, everyone who knows Grandmaster knows he never misses a moment to find things to help us, so this part is likely to give some pearls of wisdom from him and Golden Mother on what happened and what to expect.

    In Nov 2025, Grandmaster mentioned that originally the transmission at the last Autumn Grand Ceremony was the Drashi Lhamo practice, but Drashi Lhamo said that she would also appear again at the Spring Grand Ceremony next March. Grandmaster asked, “Didn’t we already teach it? Why teach it again?”

    Drashi Lhamo replied, “Instant wealth has a special method. You should reveal the secret method for instant wealth.”

    Grandmaster then told everyone secretly, “This is a secret and cannot be told to outsiders! When people come, we will tell them this secret mental method. With this method, those who attend from True Buddha School will attain instant wealth.”
  
  Empowerment - the empowerment for Drashi Lhamo's secret instant wealth practice will be bestowed to those attending onsite. By True Buddha School rules, new empowerments are not available remotely for at least 6 months, and sometimes, not at all. There is no indication that Grandmaster will ever transmit this dharma again. Many dharmas like Pindola, Vishnu or Seven Eyes Buddha Mother Celestial Eye practice are "once in a lifetime" opportunities, and if one does not attend in person when it is given, there will be no future opportunity to request it. The same is currently being said of this dharma as the official video trailer states "a once in a lifetime opportunity of a thousand years", suggesting this is an extremely rare transmission that equally extremely unlikely to be given again at future Grand Ceremonies. It isn't set in stone, but if you want the empowerment and have the possibility of coming for it, I would urge you to take action to make it happen rather than wait in hope of a more convenient opportunity coming later.
