Tap into the power of all the Buddhas to open your heart to liberate all sentient beings. The infinite ultimate bodhicitta needed to realize enlightenment and liberate beings as limitless as space, may be simple to understand but can be difficult to cultivate. In our world it can be hard enough to develop worldly compassion and sympathy for friends our family; never mind those with opposing political views or who you perceived to have wronged you. To develop the heart of enlightenment big enough to genuinely care for the whole world selflessly like the great bodhisattvas of Shambhala takes a huge continuous effort.
Khentrul Rinpoche will bestow this empowerment (jenang) to help connect us with the power of Chenrezig and through the Shambhala Kalki King Pundarika, the power of the Kalkis. Through this special connection we can with sustained effort, open our hearts to truly cultivate the capacity of unconditional love and compassion to create a Golden Age of time on earth. Khentrul Rinpoche will guide us in a teaching on how the Shambhala Kings are the ultimate compassionate warriors that we can become as well.

INCLUDED IN THIS EVENT
Chenrezig (Jenang), Oral transmission of the practice, a preliminary teaching and practice sessions with a Q&A session.

CHENREZIG FOR KALACHAKRA STUDENTS
The main commentary, Vimalaprabha” (Skt.) or “Stainless Light” that we have on the Kalachakra Tantra was written by the Shambhala Kalki Pundarika who is a manifestation of Chenrizig. Through Kalki Pundarika’s infinite compassion, he taught the Kalachakra Tantra in a way that was more accessible for sentient beings and helped the teachings flourish in the sublime realm of Shambhala. HH the Great 14th Dalia Lama, and Kalachakra Master, is also seen as a manifestation of Chenrizig and many of the practitioners of Kalachakra globally are connected to him through empowerment.You do not necessarily need to practice Chenrizig separately, we just need to build a connection. Then you can integrate it within your own practice, for example within the Kalachakra Path. You can either practice Chenrizig as your main practice and see it as non-contradictory with the Kalachakra Path, or you can focus on the Kalachakra system without seeing the separation from Chenrizig, as he is even included in the Kalachakra mandala. You can work with the different Deities seeing them all as Kalachakra to cultivate different aspects of your nature that you feel they will help.

WHO IS THIS FOR or HOW TO PREPARE MYSELF?
There are no prerequisites at all. It is suitable for all levels of practitioners. Previous Buddhist study and practice are helpful but not mandatory.
