Heruka is an enlightened Deity of Highest Yoga Tantra who is the manifestation of the compassion of all the Buddhas. In particular, engaging in the practice of Heruka body mandala, according to the instructions of the Ganden Oral Lineage of Je Tsongkapa, is the supreme quick path to enlightenment. Following these precious instructions, we should practice Heruka Body mandala in conjunction with the ritual prayer called The Yoga of Buddha Heruka. This practice is simple but very profound.
Gen Kelsang Mila will give commentary and guided meditations on this condensed Heruka practice based on Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s instructions in Modern Buddhism.
This retreat is only for people who have a Highest Yoga Tantra Empowerment (Heruka & Vajrayogini) or for people who have the intention to receive this empowerment at the international Summer Festival 2023.
