Empowerment and Commentary with Gen-la Kelsang Khyenrab at the World Peace Temple in New York
Empowerment and Commentary
The compassion of all the Buddhas manifests for us in the beautiful clear white form of the enlightened being, Arya Avalokiteshvara. If we rely upon this Buddha of Compassion and allow him to teach and guide us, we will receive his purifying blessings. Gradually we will gain realizations of all the Stages of the Path, and our love and compassion will grow until it embraces every living being. Drawing close to Arya Avalokiteshvara and reciting his mantra with strong faith, we will ultimately become just like him, completely pure and free from suffering, abiding in his blissful Pure Land.
During the empowerment ceremony, Gen-la Khyenrab will guide us to deepen our heart connection with the Buddha of Compassion. Then, in the teachings that follow based upon Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s text, Living Meaningfully, Dying Joyfully, we will discover how we can increase awareness of our own mortality in ways that will enrich and transform our life.
