Blessings from the Pureland of Shambhala to Cultivate Your Inner Bodhisattva Warrior
The Pureland of Shambhala is not a distant dream, a myth, or a place we must wait to reach after death. It is a unique pure realm created through the vast merit of countless Bodhisattvas. Shambhala is a land of fearless Bodhisattva warriors, guided by the Dharma Kings and the Kalkis — enlightened 10th-level Bodhisattvas whose sole mission is to help us overcome our limitations and discover the inner strength and clarity needed to realize enlightenment.
In these challenging times, many of us feel weighed down by obstacles, doubts, and fears. Yet within each of us lies the courageous heart of a Shambhala warrior, waiting to awaken. This Bodhisattva heart is not fragile — it is filled with the strength to face life’s greatest difficulties. It never gives up on the work of liberating beings, meeting challenges not with weakness, but with fierce compassion and unshakable resolve.
At this special event, Khentrul Rinpoche will bestow a powerful obstacle-removing prayer to help us:
-Connect with the Kalkis of Shambhala, receiving their blessings and support.
-Discover inner strength to meet life’s challenges with wisdom and resilience.
-Transform obstacles into the path, guided by fierce compassion and unwavering determination.

Why Shambhala Matters Today
Mission to Liberate Our World
The purpose of Shambhala is not only to perfect its own society but also to help transform Earth into a realm of peace, wisdom, and prosperity.
Inspiration for Inner and Outer Change
By making a connection with Shambhala, we learn that the Golden Age begins within ourselves — through the cultivation of courage, compassion, and a deep commitment to benefit others.
Special Message to Those in Singapore
Don’t miss the Wrathful Kalachakra Empowerment on November 15th, offered online and at Yeshe Khorlo. The Kalachakra system is the very force that transformed Shambhala into a pure realm, and it is the most powerful method for transforming our own lives and contributing to the manifestation of the Golden Age. https://dzokden.org/events/vajra-vega-empowerment-wrathful-kalachara/

A Rare Opportunity to Connect with the Wrathful Kalachakra, King of Tantra
Dzokden is honored to announce a very rare and precious opportunity to receive the Vajra Vega Jenang (empowerment) with Shar Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche in Singapore.
Vajra Vega is the wrathful form of Shri Kalachakra, the King of Tantra, and revered as the highest of all Dharma protectors. As the protector aspect of Kalachakra, Vajra Vega embodies the fierce and compassionate power needed to cut through the root of ignorance and guard practitioners on the path.
Through this empowerment, students will establish a sacred connection with Vajra Vega and will be empowered to engage in the Short Vajra Vega Sadhana.
Vajra Vega: The Supreme Protector
The essence of Vajra Vega arises from non-conceptual primordial wisdom, which manifests when the winds enter the central channel, cutting the root ignorance of conceptual thought. This profound state forms the basis upon which the Six Vajra Yogas emerge, making Vajra Vega inseparable from the ultimate path of realization in the Kalachakra Tantra. When we establish a wheel of protection with Vajra Vega, we are symbolically stopping the arising of dualistic appearances, and abiding within the non-conceptual wisdom.
Prepare for Death with Vajra Vega
Receiving Vajra Vega Jenang is not only a blessing for this life but also a preparation for what comes beyond. To recognize Vajra Vega in the Bardo after death is to recognize our own deepest truth. This empowerment provides us with a lifeline of protection and wisdom, guiding us toward liberation and awakening. While we must do our best to create karmic propensities to realize our own sacred truth during this life, if we do not then in the Bardo state after death, we may be able to recognise Vajra Vega in the sea of wrathful Deities and be liberated. Normally when a person becomes frightened the whole world slows down in perception. You may be more likely to recognize a deity like Vajra Vega whom is fierce and terrifying then a loving one you feel reassured by.
The oral transmission and practices included in this event.
– Short Vajra Vega Sadhana
– Praises to Vajra Vega
The Vajra Vega Wheel of Protection Sadhana itself is not part of this event.
However, as this is one of the practices our group does monthly on protector day to generate the conditions for the golden age, we will be compiling a list of committed students who wish to practice more deeply in the future. Rinpoche has shared that if enough disciples demonstrate sincere dedication to the Short Sadhana and express their intent, he may offer the restricted Vajra Vega Wheel of Protection Sadhana again, potentially in 2027.

Do you dream of a world where your family lives with security, health, prosperity, and harmony? The ancient Buddhist vision of the Golden Age, known as Karwa Dzokden, shows us that such a world is not a fantasy — it is the natural outcome of spiritual awakening and collective transformation.
Join Shar Khentrul Jamphel Lodrö Rinpoche in Singapore where he will reveal how the Golden Age connects directly with our deepest desires for wealth, wellbeing, and family happiness. You do not need to experience the Kali Yuga! There is another way..
In this teaching, you will discover:
-The Secret of Prosperity and Wealth: How insecurity, fear, and competition give way to trust, generosity, and effortless abundance.
-The Path to Health and Longevity: How the Golden Age reduces disease, rejuvenates the environment, and brings longer, healthier lives.
-The Source of Good Fortune: How peace of mind, meaningful relationships, and natural joy create a flourishing life for you and your loved ones.
-Family and Community in the Golden Age: Why in this time, all beings are cherished as part of the same family, and how that vision can begin now in your own home.
Through profound Buddhist teachings from the Highest Yoga Tantra, Kalachakra, it’s been prophesied that the world will get better. We will flourish globally thanks to the help of the highest level Bodhisattva’s from the Pureland of Shambhala. But don’t sit back and wait. Rinpoche will illuminate how your own dharma practice can connect with this great aspiration to help usher in this time of abundance, ensuring a prosperous and fortunate future for generations to come.
Khentrul Riunpoche will bestow the Oral Transmission of the Dzokden Prayer. To access this please register for the unrestricted prayers and text in the learning center. https://learn.dzokden.org/pages/texts

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. Please help support or effort to bring the Kalachakra Empowerments all over the world by donating to this event.

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.
