The Buddha Establishing the Three Pledges wang w/HHDL in NYC

Post by Adamantine »

The Dalai Lama is giving this wang in NYC on Sunday, in Tibetan it is called Thupa Damtsik Sumkoe. Does anyone know about it? What it is, the history, lineage, etc. ? There is surprisingly little info in the public announcements.

Most likely from the Rinjung Gyatsa of Taranatha. It is a five deity mandala with Shakyamuni in the center with a dharani that purifies and reestablishes all broken samaya. It's a wonderful and useful practice. About the only place I think you will find something in print is Deities of Tibetan Buddhism, the Zurich Paintings.

Lhasa,

Do you have the URL to site where this will be streamed? I checked http://www.dalailamany.org/ but couldn't find any information.

is it possible to receive the empowerment through the live stream ?
If the thought of demons
Never rises in your mind,
You need not fear the demon hosts around you.
It is most important to tame your mind within....

In so far as the Ultimate, or the true nature of being is concerned,
there are neither buddhas or demons.
He who frees himself from fear and hope, evil and virtue,
will realize the insubstantial and groundless nature of confusion.
Samsara will then appear as the mahamudra itself….

HHDL allowed this once, with live streaming, for people in Tibet watching a Kalachakra initiation. But I don't know if this is the "official" policy for every empowerment he gives. It would be a good question to send to the private office.

I didn't find a link there either, just the mention that it would be live-streamed. Usually, on this page of HHDL's site, it will show 'live' on the top right of the page and have a player open on that page.

It was on the Registration page, in the fine print, where they tell you you give up all rights to your image being recorded at this event. Registration is now closed and that information is no longer on the page. Now that they are at capacity, let's hope they post the live-stream link.
