Empowerment is a ceremony in which the master authorizes the student to engage in Vajrayana meditation, transmitting to them the blessings of the lineage of a particular practice.
It is said that receiving empowerment from a realized lama plants the seeds of enlightenment in our mind, creating the causes for us to reveal our true nature.
The contribution is R$ 95.
In-person only.
