Empowerment

Empowerment

PLEASE NOTE: June 7th. Rinpoche will give the Medicine Buddha Empowerment for those who wish to have it, and also for those who wish to take it again.

An empowerment is a ritual in Tibetan Buddhism which qualifies and initiates a student into a particular deity practice such as Medicine Buddha.

Through the ceremony of empowerment, the student receives transmission of the qualities of the deity.  This offering is a glimpse beyond the habitual patterns of the mind and can be beneficial in transforming one’s normal way of being.  Through the ritual the student is purified and receives the benefits and blessings of the deity.

Please note that there are different classes of practices in working with a deity.  Some practices require formal empowerment before engaging in the deity practice but the practice of Medicine Buddha and its healing essence is considered beneficial to all beings and therefore can be practiced without receiving initiation. However, having the opportunity to receive the empowerment/initiation is extremely beneficial and highly recommended.
