If you have the lung for a practice you can do it alone anyway. Empowerment is required for self-visualisation.
...even if it this empowerment was for a different Vajrakilaya like the Chokling Tersar?
Good question. Some say "No!" because it is a different mandala. Others say "Yes!" as the essential nature of all yidam is the same anyway.

Thankfully he gives Vajrakilaya quite often, and sometimes with the full sadhana lung, so it is always worth watching out for the next live webcast.
If Garchen Rinpoche says you may receive the empowerment from a recorded video then those who want it need to have full confidence in that for it to be effective, with the shared intention to give and receive by this method.

Of Vajrakilaya you mean? I've been working on it. Maybe you meant a schedule for the whole thing.

It's Ratna Lingpa, with lots of additions. The online stream schedule for the drubchen will be posted as soon as they get to it.

I'm confused, I thought you were asking for a copy.
So you have a hard copy? I'm looking for a pdf. Been in contact with the institute, looks like they are busy and it will take some time to iron out. Out of stock of the hard copies right now at the webstore.

Yes I have a hard copy, but they use English versions too and add other supplemental prayers, some of the supplements are copyrighted and can't be given out to us. I asked for a pdf in the chat room.

I sent them an email yesterday to ask if it is Ratna Lingpa or a different one, and if there is a pdf or book available, but it may take time until they reply. There are pdfs of the Ratna Lingpa practice online i think but it would be good to know for sure.

Garchen R. said yesterday that it was Ratna Lingpa. Do you have links to the pdfs?

I did not look much because I wasn't sure which practice it was. There is this
http://www.losangsamten.com/files/vajrakilaya.pdf but I am not sure how reliable that website is.
