How to empower incense/food with SoV

Post by Pema Rigdzin »

I’ve heard ChNN Rinpoche say we can empower/bless incense, food, & the like with SoV to make them “liberation upon smelling/tasting,” but I’m not entirely clear on how to do this. Do I simply give rise to this intention and sing SoV in contemplation in the presence of these substances, or is there more to it?

Yes
"All phenomena of samsara depend on the mind, so when the essence of mind is purified, samsara is purified. Since the phenomena of nirvana depend on the pristine consciousness of vidyā, because one remains in the immediacy of vidyā, buddhahood arises on its own. All critical points are summarized with those two." - Longchenpa
