Long-Life and Wellbeing: 5 Tseringma Sisters Empowerment

This event is available both Online and In-person.

Awaken Vitality and Longevity with Khentrul Rinpoche

Khentrul Rinpoche has generously offered a weekend of powerful empowerments and practices to strengthen our life force and wellbeing. The first one on Saturday is of the 5 Tseringma sisters who are connected with all lineages of Vajrayana. The second Namgyalma (Ushnisha Vijaya) is on Sunday at the same venue and online. See here for Sunday’s details.

We have this rare and precious human life—and we must use it wisely. The future is uncertain, but as Bodhisattvas and aspiring Bodhisattvas, we have a responsibility to create the best conditions for a long, meaningful life dedicated to Dharma practice.

Aging, sickness, and death are inevitable. But how we meet them—with strength, clarity, and resilience—is within our power. While we may not erase all karmic seeds of illness, we can weaken their grip and plant the causes for a healthier, more vibrant future.

The Power of the 5 Tseringma Sisters

The 5 Tseringma Sisters—powerful Dharma protectors—support sincere practitioners in countless ways. They grant not only long life but also the resources essential for practice: health, sustenance, stability, and abundance. Khentrul Rinpoche reminds us that the most direct way to receive their aid is to be an excellent practitioner—because they are bound by oath to support those walking the Dharma path. Still, through focused practice, we can strengthen our connection to these protectors and amplify their blessings in our lives.

Connecting with the Mountain Spirits

In Tibet and the Himalayas, people have long honored the unseen forces of the land—mountain spirits and protectors who shape the energy of our world. Through their stories, we open ourselves to the unseen, cultivating a deep sense of wonder and gratitude for the vast reality beyond what we perceive. After receiving the empowerment to connect with these protectors, we will recite prayers together, anchoring their blessings in our lives.

Come deepen your connection to the Dharma protectors, extend your life force, and strengthen your Dharma path.

WHO CAN ATTEND
There are no formal prerequisites. Previous Buddhist study and practice are helpful but not required. Like all vajrayana practices you are taking refuge, bodhisattva vows and forming Samaya with the master.
