Vajrasattva Purification Practice

July 9, 2018 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Monday 7/9/2018 6:30-8:00pm

In Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand Pabongka Rinpoche explains how the great Atisha would purify any negativity, no matter how small, immediately. Even in public or when riding his horse, as soon as he noticed a breach of his ethics, he would stop what he was doing, drop to one knee and then and there, purify it.

Vajrasattva purification practice can purify your negative karma and prevent you from experiencing the future results. Join Venerable Tenzin Chogkyi as she takes us through this powerful practice. This is a practice that can be done daily to counteract our daily actions that we regret, and bring us closer to deep happiness and well being!

This is a practice class and will include prayers, mantras, and meditation.

Venerable Tenzin Chogkyi is a Buddhist nun, activist and popular Buddhist retreat leader and teacher. She loves bridging the worlds of Buddhist thought, current affairs, and the latest research in the field of positive psychology. As well as being passionate about her spiritual practice she also cares deeply about prison reform, animal rights, equal rights for all and bringing an end to human trafficking and other modern forms of slavery.

Venerable Tenzin first became interested in meditation after reading Be Here Now and Autobiography of a Yogi in the early 1970s. She describes her spiritual path over the next 20 years as “meandering and haphazard” until she bought a one-way ticket to India in early 1991 with the intention of meeting His Holiness the Dalai Lama. In the end, she became a student not only of His Holiness, but also of Kirti Tsenshab Rinpoche and Lama Zopa Rinpoche during the year she spent studying at Tushita Meditation Centre in Dharamsala, India and Kopan Monastery in Kathmandu, Nepal.
