at
DKC Tibetan Meditation Center, 1600 Sheridan Place, Escondido CA 92027
Drupon Samten Rinpoche will give the Empowerment of White Tara. He wants to give this empowerment to everyone who is helping build the new center, all the volunteers and others connected to the center. From the spiritual point of view, theses teachings are being given as an offering of generosity and repaying the kindness of the people who have helped us so much to build the monastery.
White Tara helps to increase our wealth and specifically dispels all the fears and obstacles both external and internal. It is a very important practice for all Buddhists, especially in Tibetan Buddhism there is a powerful connection with this female enlightened being. There are many stories about Tara and how she has helped people in difficult times and fulfilled their wishes to enable them to be successful in both mundane and super-mundane levels.
White Tara is specialized for long life and brings perfect health. Lord Buddha Shakyamuni’s mother was an incarnation of Tara. Tara manifests in many different forms throughout Tibet, India, the Himalayas and other regions in order to help sentient beings free from the sufferings. Drupon encourages everyone, advanced practitioners and beginners, to make a connection with Tara and to receive the blessings of the empowerment. Even if you are not a Buddhist, it is good to receive the blessings fromTara to reenergize all of your positive energy and bring inspiration and hope.
Teachings - 10am to 5pm, - starting with the empowerment in the morning. We will break for lunch around noon.
