Kalu Rinpoche | Vajradhara Ling 2024 (2) – entering to the mandala

So in this session I am going to explain to you bit by bit how to do the visualisation and so on, okay? So now when it comes to the empowerment, please make a note.

First is once you know one empowerment is kind of similar to all the empowerments.

[Lamas distribute medicine pills]
This is a “mendrup”, medicine pill, from His Holiness Dalai Lama which I received last month, then I would like to share with all of you as a blessing.

So now when it comes to any empowerment there is a, we call it “cleansing stage”. So when individuals are entering to the mandala, so we give a cleansing nectar.

And then followed by, once everybody has done the prostration to the shrine and then as they sit down and then I will be giving a gift to all the spirits and the hungry ghosts to informing them that we are entering to this very special mandala event, prayers and pujas, so therefore not to interrupt us. So therefore the venerable lama will take the torma outside as a generous gift.

And then we visualise the mandala as a protection around.
