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 RinpocheKhentrul Rinpoche Jamphel Lodrö est le fondateur et le directeur spirituel de Dzokden. Rinpoche est l’auteur de Dévoiller votre vérité sacrée, la grande voie du millieu: Clarifier la vue Jonang de l’autre-vacuité, Une vie plus heureuse, et Le trésor caché de la voie profonde.
Rinpoche à passé les vingt premières années de sa vie à élever des Yacks et chanter des mantras sur les hauts plateaux du Tibet. Inspiré par les bodhisattvas, il quitte sa famille afin d’étudier dans divers monastères sous la guidance de plus de vingt-cinq maîtres de toutes les écoles du Bouddhisme Tibétain. Grace à cette approche non-sectaire il a obtenu le titre de maître Rimé (sans parti pris) et a été identifié comme la réincarnation du fameux maître Kalachakra Ngawang Chödzin Gyaltso. Alors que dans le cœur de son enseignement il reconnaît la grande valeur de la diversité de toutes les traditions spirituelles que l’on trouve dans ce monde, il se concentre essentiellement sur la tradition Jonang-Kalachakra. L’enseignement de Kalachakra (La roue du temps) contient la méthode profonde pour harmoniser l’environnement externe avec le monde interne du corps et de l’esprit, ultimement afin d’engendrer un âge d’or de paix et d’harmonie (Dzokden).
