We are pleased to announce that Venerable Lama Tsang Tsing, from the Kagyu Dakshang Chuling center in Eugene, Oregon will be at Sukhasiddhi Foundation’s Wisdom River Meditation Center in late July to bestow three empowerments. An empowerment authorizes us to do a practice and provides a profound transmission and blessing that is a supreme method of purification.
Prerequisites for all of the empowerments:
Participants must have taken formal Refuge Vows ...
and be an active participant in Sukhasiddhi Foundation programs of study, classes, meditations, retreats or events.
Sangha members of Kagyu Takten Phuntsokling (KTP) in Sebastopol are invited as well.
Tara is awakened awareness manifest in a female form whose primary activity is to remove fear, anxiety, and obstacles. She encompasses 21 forms who have many activities. Tara is a beloved figure whose countless devotees have invoked her compassionate presence since late 6th century India. She embodies the lineage of feminine wisdom, which is the essential counterpart to the masculine aspect of skillful means. Of the two wings of wisdom and compassion that carry us to awakening, Tara and the divine feminine are the wing of wisdom of shunyata. She embodies this innate wisdom and unconditional, boundless love as she continuously nurtures and guides all sentient beings.
