Chagdrukpa Teaching
Given by Lama Palden Drolma
Saturday, June 20 at 3 PM
Wisdom River Meditation Center and Zoom for those unable to come to the center
Lama Palden Drolma will be leading 2 Chagdrukpa events: the first is an empowerment ceremony for Chagdrukpa in May that will be followed by a Teaching on a practice in June. You can sign up to attend just the empowerment or both events.
Chagdrukpa, Six-Arm Mahakala, is the primary protector of the Shangpa Lineage. He is also important for HH the Dalai Lama, who received the full transmissions from the previous Kalu Rinpoche.
Chagdrukpa is the fierce form of Chenrezig, the Bodhisattva of Compassion. He removes obstacles, both inner and outer, on the path to awakening, and protects practitioners, again on both an inner and outer level. He is dearly loved by those who come to know him as he is like a best friend. Connecting with this enlightened protector also brings many blessings, both spiritually and in our daily lives.
A Teaching (tri) on his short Torma Offering sadhana along with the text and the reading transmission (lung) will be given by Lama Palden Drolma on June 20 at 3 pm.
Prerequisites: Participants must be a Sukhasiddhi Member, program participant, or actively attending Sukhasiddhi classes and events. You need to have taken Refuge Vows and Bodhisattva Vows as well as having done some Chenrezig practice.
