Vajrasattva is the embodiment of the five Buddha families and is one of the fundamental practices of Vajrayana, a deep purification of all levels of being - body, speech and mind. The Vajrasattva practice is a powerful purification meditation that works on both psychological and spiritual levels. It purifies negativities and dualistic thinking, eliminates obstacles to awakening, and increases our joy and wellbeing as the veils are lifted between ourselves and our awakened nature. In this way we are benefited and are able to be of more benefit to others.
Audience: This empowerment is open to Sukhasiddhi practitioners and the public. Attendees must have taken Refuge prior to receiving the empowerment. If you need to take Refuge, Lama Döndrup will be offering a Refuge Ceremony on Saturday, January 9, 2021, at 10 am. See: https://sukhasiddhi.org/event/refuge-jan2021/
