Arya Manjushri Retreat Weekend With Lama Tenzin
from Garchen Buddhist Institute
Saturday & Sunday September 17 & 18 10 AM~5 PM, Lunch at Noon
Arya Manjushri Sadhana Instructions and Practice Including 10,000 mantra accumulation recitations. It will be very beneficial and powerful for everyone to join us.
“Manjushri is the Bodhisattva of Wisdom, embodying the wisdom and knowledge aspect of all Buddhas of the ten directions and three times. Manjushri practice is essential because it helps to clear away confusion about the nature of reality and bring forth wisdom. The Manjushri root mantra,
OM WA GHI SHVA RI MUM is highly revered as one of the quickest methods to bring about transcendent awareness.”
Lama Tenzin is from the eastern part of Tibet where he attended Gar Monastery and learned the Drikung Kagyü lineage rituals and accumulated the Five-fold Path of Maha-mudra practices. He later attended the Nyingma lineage Serth Monastery to receive sutra and mantra philosophy teachings. Still later, Lama Tenzin learned Tibetan poetics at the Sakya lineage Dzongsar Monastery, and then he studied Tibetan astrology at the Karma Kagyü Palpung Monastery. After that, Lama Tenzin studied the Prajnaparamita at the Juophy Monastery of the Drukpa Kagyü lineage. He then traveled to Sera Monas-tery (Gelupa lineage) to study logic and Tibetan cultural arts. All the while, Lama Ten-zin received the many kindnesses of the various lineage Gurus who bestowed the prac-tice empowerments, instructions and transmissions. Lama Tenzin will soon begin lead-ing a teaching program at the Garchen Buddhist Institute in Arizona, and in the mean-time, he has been visiting many Dharma centers in the USA.
