  Vajrasattva
Empowerment
  with
  His Eminence
Chungtsang Rinpoche
  Saturday - June 9, 2012
  10 am - 4:00 pm
   
Vajrasattva is the Buddha of Purification. Meditation on this deity, together with the recitation of the 100-syllable mantra, is considered one of the most powerful Tantric methods for purifying the negative karma of body, speech and mind, and for eliminating karmic obstacles. All the great Tibetan Buddhist meditators have relied on this preliminary practice as a foundation for the success of their meditation and inner transformation.
 
 
This empowerment will qualify those who receive it to participate in the weekly Sunday 10 am. Vajrasattva practice as well as the year-end retreat for 2012.

His Eminence Chungtsang Rinpoche was born in October 1963. At the age of 14 he was recognized as the 14th reincarnation of Gungbar Chungtsang Rinpoche by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and thus joined Drepung Loseling Monastery. Rinpoche received a number of Empowerments and Initiations from His Holiness the Dalai Lama and His Holiness’ two tutors. In 2008 he traveled with the Mystical Arts of Tibet tours and has returned for the current 2012 tour.
