What's on in New Cross

Greater London, England

New Cross is a proper south-eastern corner of Greater London that has long been known for its community spirit and local pubs. With no specific venues listed to name-drop, we just know there are plenty of markets and pop-up stalls within easy reach if you fancy a wander. It feels like a neighbourhood where everyone knows your name and the gossip travels faster than the tube. Weekends here often see outdoor festivals or cinema nights that draw crowds from all over the borough. You can usually find a book fair or a local art show tucked away somewhere nearby without needing to ask for directions. Near Here keeps track of what's on so you don't have to spend your Saturday evening scrolling through endless lists.

Lama Chopa and Tsog Offering (Guru Puja)

Lama Chopa (also known as Guru Puja) is a practice of guru devotion special to the Gelugpa tradition. During this practice, the lamas of the graduated path lineage beginning with Shakyamuni Buddha himself, are invoked, extending to present direct teachers who have shown the path. Practitioners pay homage, make offerings, and request each of them to please bless their minds with the same realizations that they themselves have generated. By offering sincere, heartfelt requests, students make their minds ripe to receive the full blessings of this precious lineage and quickly actualize the realizations they need to attain enlightenment. If you wish to experience realizations quickly, the practice of Lama Chopa is indispensable. The benefits of the practice according to Lama Zopa Rinpoche: Practicing this Guru Puja, which is an integration of the three deities, makes it much easier to achieve enlightenment in a brief life of this degenerated time. Doing this practice every day, with purification and many infinite skies of merit, brings the mind closer to the path to enlightenment and closer to enlightenment itself, and so much closer to freeing all sentient beings from obscurations and suffering and leading them to enlightenment.
