SUMMARY:Empowerment of Samadhi
DESCRIPTION:From the Profound Dharma of Kyobpa Rinpoche Jigten Sumgöncommentary by Khenpo Samdup Rinpoche\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSATURDAY October 18th*9:00am – 11:00‌pm E‌DT‌ TeachingsDaily Practice will follow teachings  \n\n\n\nSUNDAY October 19th*9:00am – 11:00‌pm E‌DT‌ TeachingsDaily Practice will follow teachings  \n\n\n\n*Mandarin translation available \n\n\n\nThe “Empowerment of Samadhi” by Lord Jigten Sumgon is a Vajrayana Buddhist practice\, found in a text of the same name\, that allows practitioners to engage in self-empowerment. It is based on the understanding that the practitioner’s mind and the deity are not separate\, and by engaging in the practice with faith\, one can receive blessings and achieve a state of samadhi or meditative absorption. \n\n\n\nThe practice of Manjushri enables the individual to cultivate and increase wisdom by facilitating the sharpening of intelligence and the ability to engage in critical analysis. It also enhances the development  of bodhicitta that leads to the state of omniscience. \n\n\n\nWe invite you to participate in our online sessions at Gar Drolma\, including morning sessions and afternoon sessions available online only with the international sangha.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe are only able to offer Dharma programs like this because of your kindness and generosity.

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
