Ritual Class: Torma Making Workshop

Tormas are traditional ritual food offerings, usually made from marzipan, that are offered to the Buddhas in a variety of ritual practices, including empowerments, retreats, and chanted prayers. By making these offerings, we create powerful causes for spiritual attainments, motivated by compassion and the wish to benefit all living beings.

In this hands-on workshop, Jana Stanley from KMC Florida, who is skilled in making tormas, will guide us step by step in learning this beautiful and meaningful art. The workshop will be informal, practical, and enjoyable, and is suitable for everyone — whether you are experienced or completely new to torma making.
Participants will learn about the different types of tormas and how to make them correctly and confidently according to the New Kadampa Tradition lineage. Everyone is welcome!

For anyone interested in helping more with torma making, additional sessions will be held on Sun., April 12 from 3 to 5pm and Tues., April 14 from 6:45 to 8:15pm.
