This empowerment is a blissful guided meditation through which we connect to the enlightened mind of Buddha Prajnaparamita.
Prajnaparamita is a female enlightened Buddha who is the manifestation of the Perfection of Wisdom of all the Buddhas. She is also called the Great Mother, from whom we can receive special power to improve our wisdom, conjoined with a mind of love for all living beings. By receiving these inspiring blessings, we can develop our own practice of wisdom and compassion and gain the confidence to progress along the spiritual path.
With effort, and with the inspiring energy of Prajnaparamita’s blessings, we can cultivate the wisdom and pure compassion of a Bodhisattva, someone who can bring enormous relief to our suffering world.
Everyone is welcome!
