World of the Ancient Sages – Stories of the Realized Kalachakra Yogis with Khentrul Rinpoche (Kalachakra Empowerment Pre-teaching)

This event is available both In-person and Online.

Kalachakra Empowerment Pre-Teaching – October 1, 2025

Discover the Living Legacy of the Jonang Lineage
Join Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche for a special pre-teaching in preparation for the upcoming Kalachakra Empowerment. In this exclusive session, Rinpoche will:

-Re-release “Ancient Sages of the Jonang Tradition”
Be among the first to receive Rinpoche’s newly revised edition, featuring rare teachings on the great yogis who preserved the Kalachakra lineage through centuries of practice.

–Illuminate the Path of the Ancient Yogis
Explore inspiring stories of monastic and non-monastic tantric practitioners who unlocked the transformative power of Kalachakra. Discover how their realization can guide our own practice today.

-Offer of the preparation Ritual Dances
Witness a traditional ceremony invoking local deities and offering goddesses to secure the sacred grounds—setting the stage for the Empowerment itself.

Why the Jonang Tradition Is So Extraordinary
The Jonang lineage has always stood apart for its living, experiential realization. From the earliest Mahasiddhas to the countless yogis hidden in the valleys of Jomanang, these masters embodied the completion-stage practices of the Six Vajra Yogas to cultivate direct perceptions of their Buddha-nature. It was this very potency of practice—and the abundance of yogins who reported clear, systematic, and spontaneous wisdom—that led Dolpopa Sherab Gyaltsen, after studying in many schools, to settle in Jomanang Valley and dedicate himself wholly to Kalachakra.

In our pre-teaching, Rinpoche will draw upon these remarkable examples—tales of hidden yogins who achieved profound realization through dedication and devotion—so that we, too, may be inspired to walk their footsteps and awaken the same innate clarity within ourselves.

How to Participate
This pre-teaching is open to those registered for the October Kalachakra Empowerment as well as anyone who wants to learn more to decide if they wish to attend. You can also watch the recording to prepare for the empowerment if you miss it and are enrolled in the Kalachakra Empowerment. This event is donation based.

Roadmap to Enlightenment – Kalachakra Tantra & the 6 Vajra Yogas (Kalachakra Empowerment Pre-teaching)

This event is available both In-person and Online.

Why You Should Attend This Special Pre-Teaching
This is not just an optional teaching—this pre-event includes important preliminary rituals and transmissions that begin the sacred process of preparing for the Kalachakra Empowerment. If you are registered for the empowerment, this is an essential part of the journey. If you are not sure to attend the kalachakra empowerment, this is a good overview evening to understand this profound path. 

Unveiling the Vajra Yogas and the Kalachakra Path
The Kalachakra Tantra is one of the most complete and advanced spiritual systems in all of Tibetan Buddhism—celebrated by all lineages as the “King of Tantras.” Only the Jonang tradition preserves the full cycle of Kalachakra teachings, including the rare and profound Completion Stage Vajra Yogas—a direct path to fully awaken the enlightened nature of your being.

Through the Kalachakra path, it is possible to:
-Transcend conflict and suffering
-Harmonize inner and outer realities
-Create the causes for both the liberation of all sentient beings and the manifestation of a Golden Age of peace in the world

What to Expect in This Special Teaching

Khentrul Rinpoche will guide us through:
-A glimpse of the Kalachakra path to enlightenment including the role of external, internal, and secret Kalachakra
-An introduction to the Greatness of the Six Vajra Yogas, the completion stage practices unique to the Jonang tradition

This session may include elements of ritual and possibly a more personal “fireside chat” style reflection to help you connect with the heart of the Kalachakra path.

2. Once your registration is confirmed, you’ll receive access to this session through the Dzokden Learning Center

Drolmi Kazug Fortune Pillar Puja – 21 Tara and Red Vaisravana Empowerments with Khentrul Rinpoche

This event is available both In-person and Online.

Drolmi Kazug Puja & 21 Taras Wealth Vase Blessing
Red Vaisravana Empowerment & Golden Age Fortune Ceremony

Receive Powerful Blessings to Transform Your Fortune in the year of the snake. For those seeking wealth, abundance, children, success, or fame.

What You Will Receive:
-21 Tara Empowerment
-Red Vaisravana Empowerment (Holding the Spear of Fame & Fortune)
-Drolmi Kazug Auspicious Fortune Tower Puja
-21 Taras Wealth Vase Blessing Ceremony

Complete Oral Transmission of the Drolmi Kazug Sadhana—to empower your own personal practice and prosperity.

About the Drolmi Kazug Puja System
This incredibly rare system from the Jonang lineage is almost unknown, even in Tibet. The scale of this event surpasses even the most luxurious versions done in Asia.

For this Lunar New Year, Khentrul Rinpoche will bless 636 Golden Age Treasure Vases, establishing the causes and conditions for:
-Dzokden to flourish globally
-The founding of a Dzokden Dharma Center in the United States
-Our 2027 celebration marking the changing of the Kalki King in Shambhala

This isn’t just a one-time puja. The entire Drolmi Kazug text has been translated so that, if you wish, you can continue the practice yourself — bringing lasting prosperity into your life.

Why This Practice Works
Many people seek quick fixes for deep problems—chanting one mantra or doing a single ritual—but their wishes go unfulfilled. Why? Because millions of karmic conditions must ripen for true change. And the power of our own generosity and effort shapes the results. This profound puja—revealed as a mind terma by Lama Yonten Sangpo and Lama Lodro Drakpa—creates the conditions for fortune to flourish in every aspect of your natal astrology chart.

Through extensive offerings to countless unseen beings who influence our karmic results, this puja purifies unfixed karmas related to:
-Disease
-Spirit and demon harm
-Obstacles to wealth, health, fame, vitality, and longevity

Rinpoche’s deity has signaled that now is the perfect time to offer this puja for the benefit of all. Let us come together and create the conditions for the Golden Age of Peace and Harmony to manifest in our world.

Rare Opportunity to Bring Wealth and Success into Your Life

Rinpoche has spent months preparing an incredibly special set of blessed items to empower this system and allow you to continue the practice long after the puja:
-A specially composed sadhana
-3D Fortune Palace of the 21 Taras
-636 Treasure vases and prosperity vases
-Custom-commissioned Thangkas
-Longevity-invoking Arrows (Datar)
-Auspicious Fortune Pillars
-Wealth-related statues and sacred substances

These blessed items are available as optional practice packages when you register. Once empowered and consecrated, you will be able to join the global community in performing this practice together 4 times a year on each solstice and equinox. If you own the practice objects, you can also join additional Naga Puja and Wealth Puja sessions — offered through a dedicated course in our Dzokden Learning Center.

Additional Holy Objects Being Blessed in this Puja
-Drolmi Kazug Treasure Vases for Practitioners

OFFERING TO ATTEND THE FOR EMPOWERMENTS AND PUJA
In the past, people would travel great distances and give up all their worldly wealth—gold, homes, even family ties—just to receive a single drop of dharma. Today, due to our own lack of merit, such immense offerings are no longer requested. Still, the truth remains: the dharma is beyond price. No material offering can ever equal the value of the path to liberation. While we strive to make these precious teachings as accessible as possible, there are real costs involved in offering empowerments and pujas online, and in sharing Rinpoche’s wisdom with the world. To support this, we’ve created three offering levels that are adjusted for global cost of living. No one will be turned away due to financial need. If you are a monastic or require additional support, please contact [email protected]. And remember, this puja is focused on wealth and clearing astrological karma—it works through your karmic connection and generosity. Let this guide your decision when requesting financial aid.

If you would like to offer Dana to Rinpoche virtually, you can do so here on Dzokden’s website. All donations to Dzokden are unrestricted contributions that allow us to direct the funds to Rinpoche’s projects based on their priority.

Odmik – mandala uma Kalačakre – Khentrul Rinpoče in Bob Thurman

Dogodek je na voljo za osebno udeležbo in prek spleta.
Ta stran je samo za spletno prijavo. Za prijavo z osebno udeležbo kliknite tukaj.

Odkrijte skrito modrost mandale in njeno globoko žensko bistvo
Pridružite se nam na močnem tednu tantrične prakse, vizualizacij na podlagi linije in duhovnega opolnomočenja, ki ga bosta vodila dva izjemna učitelja —Khentrul Rinpoče, mojster Kalačakre in nosilec linije Jonang, in Robert Thurman, svetovno znan učenjak in interpret indo-tibetanske budistične modrosti.

Ta odmik ni samo kontemplativen — je poglobljen, zasnovan tako, da prebudi vašo notranjo mandalo in vam pomaga utelesiti transformativno resničnost svete arhitekture Kalačakre. Ne glede na to, ali poglabljate stopnjo porajanja ali ta opolnomočenja prejemate prvič, boste dobili redek dostop do učenj, ki združujejo duhovno trdnost z vizionarskim uvidom.

Nadgradnja prakse, ki temelji na tradiciji Kalačakre Jonanga
Ta odmik se bo osredotočal na uporabo posebnega besedila prakse velikega meditatorja tradicije Jonang, legendarnega Dolpope. Ko napredujemo skozi besedilo, bomo sistematično izboljševali sposobnost vizualizacije in zmožnost zasedanja celotnih palač mandale telesa, govora in uma, razvijali poglobljeno izkušnjo stopnje porajanja v sistemu Kalačakre. Ekipa Lame Khentrula Rinpočeja bo udeležence vodila skozi to redko besedilo šole Jonang, pri tem pa bodo prestavljali edinstvene komplete slik, ki prikazujejo vsako božanstvo, vključno s telesno držo, okraski in pripomočki, ter ilustrirali njihovo natančno mesto v ogromni palači spomina mandale.

Za podporo in obogatitev prakse bomo uporabljali več virov v angleškem jeziku, vključno s podrobnimi sklici na Mandalo Kalačakre Edwarda Henninga, ki jo odlikujejo žive arhitekturne ilustracije in celovito poglavje o stopnji ustvarjanja/porajanja. Dodatno k temu bomo prejeli tudi zasebne prevode ključnih delov sadhane za stopnjo porajanja sedmega Dalajlame Kelsanga Gyatsa.

Kot vemo, je lahko vzdrževanje vsakodnevne napredne prakse zunaj odmika izziv, še posebno sredi zahtev in motenj našega hitro spreminjajočega se sveta. V tem odmiku se bomo osredotočili na iskanje načinov za ohranjanje zavedanja o sveti resničnosti mandales tem, da se bomo naučili uporabljati orodja, ki nam bodo pomagala vključiti njeno uravnovešajočo prisotnost v naše vsakdanje življenje. Z boljšim usklajevanjem z alternativno resničnostjo mandale lahko delamo na preobrazbi svoje izkušnje tudi pri soočanju s kompleksnostjo sodobnega življenja.

Opolnomočenja za očiščevanje in notranjo modrost

Opolnomočenje Heruke Vadžrasattve (sobota, 6. september)
Khentrul Rinpoče bo podelil redko obliko Vadžrasattve, značilno za Kalačakro, kar vam bo omogočilo prečiščenje karmičnih zatemnitev in ponovno povezavo s čisto, neomadeževano naravo vašega uma.

“Praksa Vadžrasattva vam omogoča, da razkrijete resničnost svoje Budove narave, ki je trenutno skrita zaradi madežev, ki jih povzročajo navezanost, agresija in zaslepljenost. Trenutno je naša situacija kot umazan kot stekla. Ta praksa vam daje močno metodo za očiščevanje umazanije, hkrati pa se zavedate, da je spodaj kristalno čisto steklo, ki je popolnoma čisto in neomadeževano. S prakso Vadžrasattve bo to prepričanje stalno naraščalo, ko boste prihajali vse bliže razkritju vrojene čistosti svoje najgloblje narave.”

Opolnomočenje Višvamate
Vstopite v stopnjo porajanja Kalačakre z opolnomočenjem Višvamate, univerzalne matere in družice Kalačakre. Višvamata je utelešenje prajne (modrosti) in prehod do notranje dimenzije mandale in Yogini.

Kaj boste odnesli
-Dovoljenje za prakso Heruke Vadžrasattve, srditega očiščevalnega božanstva Kalačakre
–Opolnomočenje Višvamate, ki vam daje dostop do prakse stopnje porajanja
–Globlje razumevanje mandale uma, vključno z božanstvi in simboliko
-Prakso sadhane stopnje porajanja, ki se osredotoča na Mandalo uma iz linije Jonang, ki je Khentrul Rinpoče ni podelil nikoli prej
-Orodja za pomoč pri stabiliziranju svete zaznave in prenosu mandale v vaše vsakdanje življenje.

Učenja z Robertom Thurmanom: Mandala kot živa psihologija
Prek odmika bo Robert Thurman podajal navdihujoča predavanja in vprašanja&odgovore, ki vpenjajo ezoterična učenja Kalačakre v psihološki in simbolični okvir. Njegove globoke izkušnje in lucidne razlage pomagajo, da mandala postane ne le dostopnja, ampak tudi živahno pomembna v našem današnjem svetu.

Izpostavljeno besedilo: vizualni vodnik za praktikante

Kalachakra Mandala: The Jonang Tradition
avtor: Edward Henning, uredil Robert Thurman
(Treasury of the Buddhist Sciences, 2023)

Ta odmik se v veliki meri opira na Henningovo ilustrirano mojstrovino, ki temelji na prenosu Jonanga Bamde Geleka Gyatsoja. Knjiga z nazornimi podrobnostmi in praktičnim vpogledom prikazuje tristopenjsko mandalo in njene stotine božanstev, kar zagotavlja jasnost za vizualizacijo in duhovno sozvočje za poglobitev vaše prakse.

“Mandala Kalačakra je kronski dragulj indo-tibetanske tantre in je spominska palača prebujenega uma. Henningov prispevek prinaša jasnost, natančnost in umetniški vpogled – neprecenljiv spremljevalec za učenjake in meditante.

Komu je namenjen ta odmik

Ta odmik je idealen za:
-učence, ki so v preteklosti prejeli opolnomočenje Kalačakre in želijo poglobiti svojo prakso,
-praktikante, ki prakticirajo na stopnji porajanja ali vstopajo nanjo,
-duhovne iskalce, ki jih privlači sveta ženska modrost in mandala kot meditativna arhitektura,
-vse, ki želijo poglobiti svoje razumevanje mandale Kalačakre s pristnim vodstvom.
