Practice during total solar eclipse

11th August 2026

Tomorrow there is a total solar eclipse. It will begin at 18:17 UK time and will reach its maximum at around 19:12 before ending at about 20:06 UK time. It is said that during a solar eclipse (not the whole day), merits are multiplied 100 millionfold. Yongdzin Rinpoche taught us how to practise duirng this special time, saying that is very important to recite །ཚེ་དབང་སྨོན་ལམ་དོན་འདུས་རིན་ཆེན་ཕྲེང་བ་བཞུགས། The Precious Mala: A Collection of Aspirational Prayers, also known as Tsewang Mönlam and then remain in the Natural State. To support our fellow Bönpo practitioners, we have made this prayer available GRATIS HERE.

He was miraculously self-born on a lotus.[2] It says that he was born in a place called Tagzig.[3] In ancient times, that was a very big country. Maybe it included Afghanistan, too. In our text, it says Tajik and then Kashmir. Kashmir is translated into Tibetan as Kache.[4] These countries are quite closely joined. So this first Drenpa Namkha was there.
