Butter lamp Offerings - Mar Me ("butter fire")
$1 = 1 Butter lamp
The offering of butter lamps, known as mar me meaning butter fire, is connected to the aspiration that the light of wisdom will dawn in the minds of all beings. The light dispels the darkness of ignorance and illuminates the world. These offerings of light can be made for any virtuous reason. Butter lamps are lit and prayers are offered when we wish to alleviate suffering, honor a special moment, or increase the positive energy of an action or event.
Your contribution to this sacred practice helps sustain not only the physical butterlamps themselves, but also other related expenses at Tara Mandala that support the community who make these meaningful offerings possible and nurtures our community's spiritual life and connects the Sangha.

Dedications and prayers included with the butter lamps are shared with the sangha and through this connection the blessings increase.

You are always welcome to offer anonymously or with initials for increased privacy.
