Guru Rinpoche empowerment
Lama Tsering will grant the Guru Rinpoche empowerment to Ngöndro practitioners and opens this rare opportunity to all who wish to participate.
On January 4th, Lama Tsering will grant the Guru Rinpoche empowerment to all those who wish to receive the empowerment for the first time or renew their vows!
With Guru Rinpoche empowerment, we begin to cultivate, through the practice of Guru Yoga, the presence of the enlightened and awakened mind that permeates everything. On this path, the student, under the Lama's blessings, comes to realize the inseparability between their pure motivation and the master's vast mind of wisdom.

Drubchöd é uma prática elaborada e extensa, que inclui a recitação de uma sadana, mantras e danças rituais.
Um Drubchöd possui oferendas tão elaboradas quanto as de um Drubchen, porém em um período menor.
Empowerment is a ceremony in which the master authorizes the student to engage in vajrayana meditation, passing on the blessings of the lineage of a particular practice.
It is said that receiving empowerment from a realized lama - and renewing this commitment by receiving initiation many times - plants the seeds for enlightenment in our minds, creating the causes for us to reveal our true nature.
