Vajrasattva Empowerment with Khentrul Rinpoche
If you are enrolled in the 2026 – 2027 Ngondro program then this event is included in your enrollment. Please do not register separately.
Karma affects every aspect of our lives—our health, relationships, emotional patterns, and spiritual progress. While we can work consciously with our body, speech, and mind to create better karma going forward, past karmic imprints cannot be undone through intention alone. For this reason, the Vajrayana tradition relies on powerful tantric purification practices—methods specifically designed to cleanse deep karmic obscurations accumulated over countless lifetimes.
What Is This Event?
This one-day event offers a rare opportunity to receive the Vajrasattva Heruka Empowerment (Jenang) from Khentrul Rinpoche, followed by guided purification practice led by senior practitioners. Although this practice is traditionally performed within the Jonang–Kalachakra Ngöndro, you do not need to be practicing Ngöndro to benefit. Karma affects all of us, and purification is essential at every stage of the path.
– Vajrasattva Empowerment from Rinpoche
– Guided Visualization to Purify Your Chakras according to Kalachakra (Led by Yeshe Wangmo online only and recorded)
– Teachings on Purification and Karma from Khentrul rinpoche
Why Vajrasattva Practice Matters
In Vajrayana Buddhism, Vajrasattva represents the innate purity of mind—the Buddha Nature that remains unstained, even when obscured by negative karma, emotional afflictions, and habitual patterns.Rather than suppressing guilt or regret, Vajrasattva practice works directly with cause and effect, restoring clarity, confidence, and spiritual momentum.
As Khentrul Rinpoche explains:
“Vajrasattva practice allows you to uncover the reality of your Buddha-nature, which is currently hidden as a result of defilements created by attachment, aggression and delusion. Our current situation is like a dirty piece of glass. This practice provides you with a powerful method to wash away the dirt while being confident that underneath there is crystal clear glass which is completely pure and unstained. Through the practice of Vajrasattva, this confidence will steadily grow as you come closer and closer to discovering the innate purity of your most profound nature.”
