Amitabha Empowerment and Puja with Khentrul Rinpoche
This is a paid event and available both Online and In-person.
Amitabha is the most well-known Buddha after Buddha Shakyamuni himself. Some Chinese traditions only focus on Amitabha, and many Tibetans also focus on him because, in the Amitabha sutra, it is said he has taken many vows to help sentient beings easily be reborn in his Pureland of Sukhavati, the Land of Bliss.
Amitabha Pureland is one of the well-known easiest pure lands to get to, although perhaps harder to reach than the Bodhisattva realm of Shambhala. Through this empowerment, one can connect with and work to cultivate unwavering faith and devotion to Amitabha. If one is reborn in his pure land, the path to Buddhahood is natural.
Two of Khentrul Rinpoche’s Lamas, including his root Guru Lama Lobsang Trinlé emphasized Amitabha a lot, especially for non-monastic householder practitioners. Even though Lama Lobsang Trinlé was a Kalachakra master, he spent his whole life practicing and extensively teaching Amitabha to everyone. He eventually bestowed not only his hat but also his precious practice text of Amitabha to Khentrul Rinpoche. It had become warn out because he had used it for so many years. Lama Lutrin instructed Khentrul Rinpoche to teach this practice to Amitabha to many people in the future.
Up until now, Khentrul Rinpoche has focused on sharing his passion for Shambhala and the Golden Age, so he has not had a chance to emphasize Amitaha enough. But now he sees that it is the right time to start emphasizing and sharing these teachings to fulfill his responsibility to his precious teacher.
Many of the people with great faith and devotion feel at peace upon death, They often see Amitabha before they die and feel at peace and secure after they have become dedicated to this practice. A Jonang Lama and a Khandro said that Khentrul Rinpoche’s own mother went to Sukhavati so the practice is very powerful. Khentrul Rinpoche received this empowerment and practice many times from Nyingma Lama, Zhigli Khenpo Tenzin Zangpo and Lama Lobsang Trinley.
Rinpoche will give the empowerment and a practice with it.

Khentrul RinpocheMaestro Jonang Kalachakra
Khentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö es el fundador y director espiritual de Dzokden. Rinpoche es el autor de Develando tu verdad sagrada, El gran camino del medio: Clarificando la visión Jonang del ‘vacío de lo otro’, Una vida más feliz y El tesoro oculto del camino de la profundización.
Rinpoché vivió sus primeros 20 años pastoreando yaks y cantando mantras en las mesetas del Tíbet. Inspirado en la vida de los Bodhisattvas, él dejó a su familia para estudiar en varios monasterios bajo la instrucción de más de 25 maestros de todas las tradiciones tibetanas. Debido a su enfoque no sectario, Rinpoché obtuvo el título de Maestro Rimé (libre de prejuicios) y fue identificado como la encarnación del gran maestro de Kalachakra, Ngawang Chozin Gyatso. Aunque en esencia sus enseñanzas reconocen el valor de la diversidad de toda tradición espiritual del mundo, Rinpoché se ha enfocado en las enseñanzas de la tradición Jonang- Shambhala. Las enseñanzas del Kalachakra (rueda del tiempo) contienen métodos profundos para armonizar nuestro entorno externo con el mundo interno del cuerpo y la mente; lo que finalmente manifiesta la Edad de Oro de la Paz y la Armonía (Dzokden).
