SUMMARY:Tara\, The Great Protectress & Liberator
DESCRIPTION:Friday March 7th: 7:00-9:00pm ESTGreen Tara Empowerment \n\n\n\nSaturday March 8th: 9:00am – 12pm EST & 2-4pm EST Green Tara & 21 Tara Teachings & Practice \n\n\n\nSunday March 9th: 9:00am – 12pm EST  Green Tara & 21 Tara Teachings & Practice \n\n\n\n**This S‌und‌ay\, the ti‌me will change to Eastern Daylight Time – clocks will be set one hour ahead. Please check your time zone to determine the correct time.   \n\n\n\nLet’s meet at Gar Drolma Buddhist Temple in Dayton to receive this auspicious empowerment and profound teachings of Green Tara and the Twenty-one Taras from our dear Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche.. \n\n\n\nGreen Tara is known for swiftly coming to the aid of those who beseech her when facing difficult circumstances. Ultimately\, she liberates us from samsara so that all our fears are eliminated.  \n\n\n\nShe is especially associated with overcoming the Eight Great Fears that have both a physical &  mental aspect such as fire/anger\, and also inspired Lord Jigten Sumgon’s “Seven Verses of Supplication to Tara” that we recite. \n\n\n\nIn the traditionally popular “Praise to 21 Taras”\, each verse explains the protective activities or qualities of different Tara manifestations\, and can be used for daily practice to help eliminate our defilements. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis picture is from the Tara temple in Pharping\, Nepal. The Tara statue is “self arisen” as it manifested from the solid rock.  The temple is located underneath the Asura cave\, where Guru Rinpoche attained enlightenment. Khenpo has taken many pilgrimages to this location. \n\n\n\n*Mandarin translation Available**Lunch will be served at the temple for those attending at Gar Drolma \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTexts\n\n\n\n\nDeity Yoga Sadhana\n\n\n\nPraises to Twenty One Taras\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVideo Library\n\n\n« Prev1 / 1Next »Green Tara Teaching & Practice with Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche\, Sun\, March 9\, 2025Green Tara Teaching & Practice with Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche\, Sat\, March 8\, 2025 PMGreen Tara Teaching & Practice with Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche\, Sat\, March 8\, 2025 AM« Prev1 / 1Next »\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReturn to Video Library Page
