A special blessing empowerment

How to Be Fearless -  Green Tara Empowerment

Saturday February 10, from 10am - 5pm


Buddha Green Tara

Tara is a female Buddha, the embodiment of fearless enlightened wisdom. Tara means ‘liberator’ in that she liberates all beings from all fear and suffering. This empowerment is a blissful guided meditation through which we make a deep connection with Tara’s enlightened mind. Through receiving her powerful blessings we can swiftly actualize our own potential for fearless wisdom and compassionate action.

After the empowerment, Gen Thekchen will give a brief introduction to the  "Liberation from Sorrow" prayer booklet, and clear instructions on how to generate yourself as Buddha Tara.   By relying on Tara with sincere faith, she will protect us from all internal and external dangers and fulfill all our wishes. She will provide us with all the conditions we need for our spiritual training, and guide and inspire us with her blessings as we progress along the spiritual path.
