Ngondro Vajrasattva Practice led by Drupon Phuntsok
August 4, 2018
In Tibetan Buddhism, the foundational practices of the ngondro are skillful methods to train the mind and must be completed before advancing to the higher practices. Vajrasattva is the deity of purification and is the second ngondro practice. Recitation of the 100 syllable mantra and visualization purify our afflictions and obscurations. Drupon Phuntsok will be leading us in this practice.
There will be a different ngondro practice led by Drupon Phuntsok every month.
