This event is both online and in-person.
Khentrul Rinpoche bestow his mind terma of the 8 Shambhala Dharma King Empowerment in the Singapore. This is a rare opportunity for establishing a direct connection with the Kalkis. Rinpoche will also give an introductory teaching and a Q&A session after the empowerment.
About the Kings of Shambhala
The Kalki Kings are the Dharma Kings of the Sublime Realm of Shambhala who were able to skillfully unite their entire realm through the Kalachakra teachings. Their effort went much more beyond only alleviating biased differences like races, conflicting religious approaches, classes etc. They helped propagate and make the Kalachakra teachings in such a way, that their realm transformed into a pure Bodhisattva realm, happy and peaceful, where spiritual practice flourishes. Differently from wordly kings which are focused on protecting and expanding their territories, the Kalkis are Kings of the dharma, bodhisattva beings who manifest as great leaders out of their compassion and wisdom.
“In general we say that the Kalki Kings are inseparable from the 8 great bodhisattvas and the 10 wrathful dakas. They are incredibly powerful. For me, the Shambhala kings are much more special because of their particular connection with our own world. The bodhisattvas and dakas possess a subtle body form, like a body of a being of the god realm, and so, only some individuals can connect with them. But the Shambhala Kings and Kalkis appeared in Shambhala as human beings, so that many people could benefit through connecting with them. And, of course, they manifest themselves not as an ordinary human being, but as an exceptional, extraordinary human being.
I have been dedicating myself intensively to prepare for this empowerment. I feel a strong connection with the Kalkis and I have no doubt that they are the greatest hope of our world for the manifestation of the Second Golden Age of Peace and Harmony.” (Khentrul Rinpoche)

HOW THE ONLINE EMPOWERMENT WILL WORK
1) Register for each attendee that will be receiving the empowerment. You will be added to the course on learn.dzokden.org

To ensure everyone will receive the empowerment, Rinpoche will kindly make his instruction booklet available to you as an eBook so you can follow along so you know exactly what is happening. You are not allowed to share this program book with anyone else or give them access to the empowerment. This is private for your personal use.

Khentrul RinpocheKhentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö là người sáng lập và là nhà lãnh đạo tâm linh của học viện Dzokden. Rinpoche là tác giả của những cuốn sách: Khám phá Chân lý tối thượng, Con đường Trung Đạo vĩ đại, Làm sáng đèn Tha Không Kiến của dòng Jonang, Sống hạnh phúc hơn, Kho báu Ẩn tàng của Đạo lộ Uyên thâm, Vén Mở Chân Lý Thiêng liêng Qua Con Đường Thời Luân.
Rinpoche đã dành 20 năm đầu tiên của cuộc đời để chăn bò yak và tụng chú trên các cao nguyên của Tây Tạng. Được các vị Bồ tát truyền cảm hứng, Ngài rời gia đình để tu học trong nhiều tu viện dưới sự hướng dẫn của hơn 25 đạo sư trong tất cả các truyền thống Phật giáo Tây Tạng. Do cách tiếp cận không theo giáo phái của mình, Ngài có danh hiệu là Đạo sư Rimé (Bất bộ phái) và được xác định là hóa thân của Đạo sư Kalachakra nổi tiếng Ngawang Chözin Gyatso. Trong khi cốt lõi giáo lý của Ngài là sự thừa nhận rằng có giá trị to lớn trong sự đa dạng của tất cả các truyền thống tâm linh được tìm thấy trên thế giới này; Ngài tập trung vào truyền thống Jonang-Shambhala. Giáo lý Kalachakra (bánh xe thời gian) chứa đựng những phương pháp thậm thâm, giúp làm hài hòa môi trường bên ngoài và nội tâm bên trong, cuối cùng mang lại thời kỳ hoàng kim của an bình và hòa hợp (Dzokden).
