Samaya Tārā Empowerment
For Committed Disciples and Active Volunteers in Dzokden’s Enlightened Activities Program
With Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche
By invite only. Invitations sent out one month before the empowerment.
Throughout the ages, the sublime goddess Tārā has swiftly responded to the calls of sincere practitioners, protecting and empowering those who dedicate their lives to the Dharma. Among her many manifestations, Samaya Tārā (dam tshig sgrol ma) — the Samaya Yoginī — stands as a profound and esoteric form within the highest yoga tantra cycles. Preserved through the Jonang tradition and elucidated by the great Jetsun Tāranātha, the Samaya Tārā cycle embodies the deep bond between disciple and deity, rooted in unwavering commitment and enlightened activity.
In his historical masterpiece, The Origin of the Tārā Tantra, Tāranātha traces the sacred origins and lineages of Tārā’s tantras — revealing how the Samaya Tārā teachings were transmitted through visions, siddhas, and hidden treasures, safeguarded by devoted practitioners who maintained their vows with purity. Unlike the more widely known outer Tara practices, this cycle represents the inner yoginī level of Tārā — a complete tantric system traditionally reserved for those who actively uphold their samaya and engage in the bodhisattva path through service and practice.
Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche will bestow the Samaya Tārā Empowerment exclusively to disciples who are actively maintaining their sacred commitments (samaya) and are weekly volunteers engaged in Dzokden’s Enlightened Activities Program. This rare transmission is both a blessing and a responsibility — a gateway into a lineage of enlightened action, where inner realization and outer service are inseparably united.
Receiving this empowerment is not simply an event; it is a mutual pledge between master, disciple, and deity. In the spirit of Tāranātha’s vision, it calls forth a community of practitioners who embody Tārā’s swift compassion through tangible, altruistic activity — manifesting enlightened society through service, creativity, and steadfast dedication.
Eligibility:
-Disciples maintaining their tantric samaya with purity and sincerity.
-Active weekly volunteers participating in Dzokden’s Enlightened Activities Program.
-A commitment to continue integrating practice with meaningful action for the benefit of all beings.
-Empowered Action: Strengthen your capacity to embody Tārā’s enlightened activity in the world — magnetizing, protecting, and inspiring through altruistic work. This is a great opportunity to strengthen your association with the power of the great mother, the mother of the Buddhas.

Khentrul RinpocheMaestru Jonang KalachakraKhentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö este fondatorul și directorul spiritual al organizației Dzokden. Este, de asemenea, autorul a numeroase cărți printre care: “Dezvăluirea adevărului vostru sacru” (“Unveiling Your Sacred Truth”), “The Great Middle Way: Clarifying the Jonang View of Other-Emptiness”, “A Happier Life” și “The Hidden Treasure of the Profound Path”.
Rinpoché și-a petrecut primii 20 de ani din viață pe platourile din Tibet, îngrijind yaci și recitând mantre. Inspirat de bodhisattva, el și-a părăsit familia pentru a studia în diferite mănăstiri sub îndrumarea a peste douăzeci și cinci de maeștri aparținând tuturor tradițiilor budismului tibetan. Datorită abordării sale nepărtinitoare, a primit titlul de maestru Rimé (non-sectarian) și a fost identificat drept reîncarnarea faimosului maestru Kalachakra, Ngawang Chözin Gyatso. El este considerat de asemenea a fi o emanație a marelui Bodhisattva Akashagarbha. Cu toate că la baza învățăturilor lui Rinpoché se află recunoașterea valorii ce decurge din diversitatea tradițiilor spirituale existente în această lume, el se axează asupra tradiției Jonang – Shambhala. Deși mulți experți din vest au considerat că această tradiție este pierdută, Rinpoché a descoperit că ea deține cele mai avansate învățături Kalachakra (roata timpului), conținând metode profunde de armonizare a universului exterior cu lumea interioară a corpului și minții. Începând cu 2014, Rinpoche a călătorit în peste 30 de țări, îndrumându-și discipolii spre realizarea adevărului lor sacru, a potențialului nelimitat, prin prezentarea clară, sistematică și graduală a căii Kalachakra spre iluminare. Învățându-i pe oameni să cultive o minte flexibilă și să înlăture prejudecățile, Khentrul Rinpoché aspiră la crearea unor comunități bazate pe compasiune, care să transforme această lume într-o eră de aur a păcii și armoniei.
