Guru Rinpoche Retreat / Day 2, Morning Session / March 9, 2024 / H.E. Garchen Rinpoche & Lamas

2024 Guru Rinpoche Mantra Accumulation Retreat Day 2, Morning Teachings and Practice H.E. Garchen Rinpoche, Khenpo Samdup, and GBI lamas March 9, 2024 9am - 12pm (MST, UTC-7) Join us for this powerful practice to relieve the suffering of beings through elimination of self-grasping and generation of bodhichitta (the intent to benefit all sentient beings). Guru Rinpoche (‘Precious Master’) established the Buddhadharma in Tibet. His name, Padmasambhava, means “Lotus-born” and refers both to his pure birth from a lotus, and to his completely awakened state — he incarnated as a fully enlightened being. The profound practice of Guru Rinpoche can transform and purify afflictive emotions – such as anger, jealousy and attachment – into wisdom and compassion, thus creating great merit while removing outer, inner and secret obstacles. The ultimate result will be the two-fold attainment of ordinary and supreme siddhis. Ordinary siddhis include long life, good health, peace and happiness, as well as the ability to fulfill all of your bodhichitta aspirations. The supreme siddhi is enlightenment. The practice of Guru Rinpoche is especially beneficial during the present degenerate age in which beings experience very strong afflictive emotions. Guru Rinpoche predicted secret mantra would be of great benefit during the height of the degenerate age when many sicknesses of mind and body prevail and in times of war. He said that during this time we should continuously supplicate him by reciting his mantra: OM AH HUNG VAJRA GURU PEMA SIDDHI HUNG. ___________________________ For the schedule, practice texts, and more details about this event please visit The Garchen Buddhist Institute at: The Garchen Buddhist Institute offers this live-stream for free.
