SUMMARY:White Tara Practice Review
DESCRIPTION:***You must have received a White Tara empowerment to attend this teaching. A Green Tara or any other Tara empowerment does not suffice.*** \nEarlier this year\, Khenchen Lodrö Donyö Rinpoche granted the empowerment for White Tara\, one of the most accessible yidam practices of the highest yoga tantra in the Kagyu tradition. This beloved practice is renowned for enhancing one’s merit\, long life\, and wisdom. And though the text is relatively short\, it contains the majority of the common elements of a vajrayana ritual of this class. To engage in this type of practice one needs three things: the empowerment\, the reading transmission\, and the instructions. During this event\, the reading transmission and instructions will be given (not the empowerment). \nLama Eric will review the various aspects of the practice and will lead guided meditations on the sadhana. There will be opportunities to ask questions and get clarification on difficult points. Lama Eric has created a new translation of the text and it is available for purchase. It will be much easier to follow the teachings if you are using this version. Please let us know if you will need a text so we can be sure to have enough. \nThrough yidam practice\, we transform our ordinary experiences of body\, speech\, and mind into the awakened expressions of White Tara’s body\, speech\, and mind. Our form is White Tara; our speech becomes her mantra; and through various samadhis and the dissolution\, we approach awakened mind. Meditation on a yidam can be a powerful and effective complement to our practices of shamatha\, vipashyana\, and compassion. In fact\, all of these essential aspects of the Buddhist path are complete within this practice. \nIn addition to the practice text\, you can choose to purchase a commentary on the practice by Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche\, The Wish-Fulfilling Wheel\, or one by Ringu Tulku Rinpoche\, White Tara\, Healing Light of Wisdom. We have limited copies of both in the KCC bookstore. \nThere will be a short lunch break from noon until 1:00pm—please bring your lunch. \n  \nREGISTER HERE \nThis event is offered on a sliding scale to support broad access. We invite you to contribute at a level that reflects your means. If you’re able to give more\, your contribution helps keep these events running and accessible to all. If you need support\, please know you’re welcome and that no one is turned away for lack of funds. \n \n\nVIEW EVENT DETAILS: https://kcc.org/event/white-tara-practice-review/
