Re: Dzogchen practice in Dorje Drolo cycle
There is some interesting update on this. Today was Wisdom Dharma Chat with Mingyur Rinpoche, and he answered many Dorje Drolo questions. What i gathered is as follows: - It is going to be 3 year cycle. This year he will give empowerment, and specific ngondro for cycle. Topic of 2nd year (2025) is ...

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
I trained and initiated a consort a few years ago. Oh dear... :rolling: I received extensive instructions on karmamudra, because I received complete empowerment, lung and detailed practice instructions that lasted over five years on Guhyagarbha from Khenpo Namdrol. Then I went and practiced in isol...

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
After reading this post over morning coffee, here is a serious question. This really applies to those of you / us who have been around the vajrayana world for some time. If you have had the higher empowerments, received some teachings on karmamudra in any form, made a sexual connection with a partn...

I trained and initiated a consort a few years ago. Oh dear... :rolling: You can laugh and make fun but that's my girlfriend and she's very devoted to me. You know why? She loves my healing touch.

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
I wonder how many people here have actual experience with physical (not just imagined) karmamudra. I'd bet the number is pretty close to zero. I trained and initiated a consort a few years ago. Given your interesting statements sir I respectfully doubt that it was in some Tibetan lineage or even in...

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
Mod note: The quoted post has been removed. This is extremely disrespectful of other traditions you know less than nothing about. There’s nothing noble about diminishing others and inflating one’s self. It demonstrates that you haven’t taken fundamental teachings of your own tradition to heart. Why...

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
Buddhist tantra predates Shaiva movement by a lot. Mahāvairocana Tantra is 674 CE. The Niśvāsatattvasaṃhitā, which is the earliest surviving Śaiva tantra, is as early as the fifth century. You'll find that the Kālacakra mantra is derived from the Navātman mantra that appears in this text. And, even...

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
Amazing :lol: Watching a Rajarshi Nandy interview is always a wild ride. It really shows you a whole different view of what tantra can look like.

Re: Three isolations of body, speech, mind - what are those?
Hi, When I read the excellent book "The elements of tantric practice" from Jamgon Kongtrul (it was years ago), I remember him talking many times about "body isolation", "speech isolation" and "mind isolation", I think in the context of completion stages. But ...

Re: Was karmamudra part of ganachakra in the ancient India?
In real ganachakra, the yogi and sadhaka is obliged to ritually consume the five types of meat (human flesh, elephant meat, horseflesh, dog, and beef) and sonsume the five nectars (human feces, marrow (brain), urine, "red bodhicitta" or (menstrual) blood, "white bodhicitta" or s...

Re: Emptiness as "insignificance" and as "spatial vacuity"
I would like first to state my understanding of "emptiness" in two contexts, trying to condense the wording as far as possible, and then ask a question. A. Emptiness as regards dependent origination is customarily intended to mean "insignificance of material and mental phenomena"...
