Phakchok Rinpoche's Dharma Teaching at Chula and the 21 Taras Empowerment



Rinpoche demonstrating how to meditate with the two thumbs combied. This method works well for those who need alertness in their meditation.

Rinpoche wearing the philosopher and lama hat at the empowerment. The hat has two ends symbolizing Mantrayana and Sutrayana.



Mandala for the 21 Taras empowerment. The Taras from the Mandala and from the Lama's forehead dissolve into us and we visualize ourself as Tara. Our body, speech and mind are no different from those of Tara.
