Yidam Sangthik Dorje Sempa practice and the drawing of the Dorje Sempa Mandala

Led by: Lama Rinchen 

On Saturday at 10:00 am there will be the Dorje Sempa empowerment (only for those who have taken Refuge in the Three Jewels).
The course will conclude on Friday at around 5:00 pm.

During this week, we will learn how to construct the correct proportions of a mandala and will become familiar with the teachings on the symbolism of the painted mandala and its direct connection to the Mandala Palace used in meditation.

Participants should bring their own: pencil, ruler, set square, and compass; for coloring: paints (with a brush) or colored pencils. A3 paper will be provided by the centre.
Sessions of explanation and mandala painting will be interwoven with regular practice sessions of the Yidam Sang Thig Dorje Sempa, in which the meditation on the mandala we will be painting is applied directly in practice.

It is said that Dorje Sempa is the highest form of Sambhogakaya and the embodiment of all one hundred peaceful and wrathful Buddhas that appear in the post-mortem bardo state. This particular practice is relatively simple, yet it contains all the essential elements of Vajrayana practice. Therefore, in the Old Tantra tradition, it is the most commonly practiced Yidam.
