Empowerment of Buddha Vajrapani

Spiritual Power

Buddha Vajrapani is the Buddha of spiritual power, sometimes referred to as the Buddha of skillful means. With the development of spiritual power we possess the confidence, inner strength and skill not only to take on and defeat our own delusions, but to be of great benefit in helping free others from their delusions as well. Nothing could be more meaningful.

The empowerment is a beautiful and inspiring guided meditation and ritual in which we are introduced to Buddha Vajrapani from whom we then receive many blessings, adding great power to our own practice as well as sowing seeds for our future attainment of enlightenment. In the afternoon and on Sunday morning Kadam Morten will give a commentary on the beautiful Tantric practice of Buddha Vajrapani as well as guide meditations.

Everybody welcome!
