Lama Tsering will grant the Guru Rinpoche empowerment to Ng\u00f6ndro practitioners and open this rare opportunity to all who wish to participate.<\/span><\/h4>\nOn January 1, 2026, Lama Tsering will grant the Guru Rinpoche empowerment to all those who wish to receive the empowerment for the first time or renew their vows!<\/p>\n
With the Guru Rinpoche initiation, we begin to cultivate, through the practice of Guru Yoga, the presence of the enlightened and awakened mind that permeates everything. On this path, the student, under the blessings of the Lama, begins to realize the inseparability between their pure motivation and the vast wisdom mind of the master.<\/p>\n
There are no prerequisites.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\"1\/3\"][vc_cta h2=\"\"]The empowerment is part of the Ng\u00f6ndro retreat, but it is not necessary to participate in the retreat in order to receive the empowerment.[\/vc_cta][vc_cta h2=\"\" style=\"custom\" add_icon=\"left\" i_icon_fontawesome=\"fa fa-calendar\" i_color=\"white\" i_background_style=\"rounded\" i_background_color=\"custom\" i_size=\"sm\" i_on_border=\"true\" i_custom_background_color=\"#d14d42\"]<\/p>\n
