21 Taras Empowerments / Oct 1-8, 2009 —– Coming Soon!

A RARE OPPORTUNITY ! (Rescheduled from August)

The Twenty-One Taras  of Nyima Baypa   (Surya Gupta)

This lineage has not been offered before by Lama Kunga Rinpoche at Ewam Choden.

This entire series of Taras Empowerments will be offered by Lama Kunga Rinpoche over 8 days, at Ewam Choden Tibetan Buddhist Center in Kensington, California.

As the embodiment of the Great Wisdom Loving Mother, Green Tara of the Sandalwood Forest, the principal Tara of the 21, is the savior of all beings. She swiftly comes at the calling of her name in times of danger and delusion. She manifests into 21 Taras or aspects embodying such qualities as wisdom, compassion and power. Her powers include transforming fears, removing obstacles, curing disease, bestowing wealth, and dissolving ignorance. The empowerments of the first principal Tara and the last Tara, the Tara of Complete Perfection,  maybe taken separately by people who cannot attend the entire series. You may sign up for one or both of those two empowerments.

NOTE:  PARTICIPANTS SHOULD FOLLOW A VEGETARIAN DIET WITHOUT GARLIC OR ONION ON THE DAY or DAYS OF THE EMPOWERMENTS.
