Vajrakilaya Retreat with Lama Tenzin
Vajrakilaya Retreat with Lama Tenzin
The Yidam, the root of all accomplishmentThe practice of Vajrakilaya is at the heart of the ancient Vajrayana traditions of Tibet. The wrathful Heruka Vajrakilaya is the yidam deity who embodies the enlightened activity of all the buddhas. Vajrakilaya manifests in an intensely wrathful yet compassionate form in order to subjugate the delusion and negativity within us that arise as obstacles to the practice of Dharma.
Dates: 24th October – 4th November
The retreat will begin after lunch on the 24th October and conclude after lunch on the 4th November.
