Hello, I had some indications it might be a good idea to do vajrapani practice. Is it possible to do it the same way as it is done in thun with simhamukha and guru dragphur? Please pm me if this info is too sensitive.

goodness is what comes to pass.

Yes. In the old short thun, Vajrapani was main male deity practice.

Just checking for a friend interested in receiving transmission from Rinpoche.

On the WWT DVD there is an explanation of the transmission for each of the three anniversaries, along with recordings of the actual practices. Obviously it's OK to watch the instructions for receiving transmission prior to doing so, but what about watching the actual practice itself, in order to learn the melodies and mudras. Is that OK, or were they only for watching 'live' when Rinpoche was actually giving transmission (i.e. the old style of watching the video at the same time, before transmissions started to be broadcast online)?

Well, I belive it is okay. Explaining is nice and all, however it is good to be familiar with the melodies and stuff so one can relax a bit.

I would like some clarification on mantra of six spaces.
In most sources it say`s A A SHA SA MA HA, yet N.N.Norbu Rinpoche uses Ha A HA SHA SA MA, can anyone tell me what`s the reason behind that, is it from different termas? I would welcome some explanation. Thnx

Rinpoche's version is found in Changchub Dorje's termas, but also in many older teachings such as Lama Yangtik, Lama Gongdü, Karling Shitro, Ratna Lingpa's Longsal, etc.

How does dissolution work in anu yoga practices? For example if i want to do a simple deity practice, i do Ati Gy, then invocation, self visualizstion and mantra and when im done i just drop everything or is there some sort of dissolution?

One reason is: Dragphur especially "controls" Sinmo & Gyalpo.
This was made clear at the GD-Tonwang in Germany 1991 (or maybe it was 1992).
