This group is restricted to those who have received the Chöd initiation in the lineage of "Tröma Nagpo and the Four Dakinis" as conferred in June 2017 at Land of Medicine Buddha. We will be using Jetsun Khalka Dhampa Rinpoche’s tunes and drum rhythm for this short practice, and get together periodically to practice as a group. Please write to spc@oceanofcompassion.org for more information.
The Tibetan word “chöd” means “to cut off” or “to slay.” The traditional practice of Chöd cuts off self-cherishing and grasping at a truly existent “I.” It creates the conditions under which one can develop the mind of conventional bodhichitta, which holds others as more dear than oneself, and the mind of ultimate bodhichitta, which sees reality as it truly is. Attributed to the great Tibetan yogini Machig Labdron, and the only practice that made its way back to India from Tibet, it is an extremely effective and quick tantric method for attaining realizations of the path to enlightenment. If you have the empowerment for this practice and are interested in this group, please write to spc@oceanofcompassion.org for more details. |
