Finding the Power to Change: Vajrapani Empowerment – Saturday, November 18 from 10:00am to 4:00pm
Buddha Vajrapani is the embodiment of the power and skill of all enlightened beings. Although his nature is compassion, his aspect is fierce to emphasize his ability to empower us to abandon our delusions and negativity. The meditation practice of Vajrapani can help us pacify all obstacles to our spiritual learning and practice and even free us from sickness.
The empowerment is a blissful guided meditation through which we make a connection to Buddha Vajrapani and through this we will receive his continual blessings and help. In the afternoon Gen Khedrub will offer an essential commentary to The Yoga of Buddha Vajrapani, a special meditation practice containing powerful visualizations and mantra recitation
