Dorje Drollo

[swampflower]

I have several questions regarding the Dorje Drollo Wrathful Padmasambhava practice.
Unfortunately I live far from my Guru so I may ask my questions here if that will be appropriate.

[Mr. G]

Hi swampflower,

Please go right ahead. I'm sure the members here know what they can and cannot speak about on this practice.

- edit.

Hi swampflower, I think I spoke to soon as I thought you were going to ask general questions about the practice. A question on the nuances of a sadhana may an issue to discuss openly. If you'd like, I'll consult with the admins before you repost your question. Sorry about that. - Mr. Gordo

[Mr. G]

Hi swampflower,

I've submitted your question to the Admins to see if we can proceed. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[swampflower]

OK sorry for overstepping boundaries.
I have received transmission so perhaps a response could be made through private message?

Hi swampflower,

No, not a problem. I think it was a miscommunication on my end. I sent you a PM. If there are members who are knowledgeable in the form of Drollo you are practicing, I'm sure they can PM to help you.

Perhaps you can post which Drollo practice you are doing so others are aware.

[swampflower]

My thanks again.
I expanded my consciousness using the Google practice and found some valuable insights.
I practice the Inner Guru - Dorje Drollo of the Younge terma or the Copper-Tube transmission.

I have a more general question. about Dorje Drollo practice.
When concentrating on foes, enemies, and demons I consider them as my kleshas such as fear, doubt, anger, hatred, greed, ignorance, and ego clinging. I view these as inner demons.
What are examples of outer demons?

hi, outer demons can be evil spirits or beings, or it can be beings 'with ten untoleratable behaviors.'

but actually outer demons are just inner kleshas' injected mirror image; as one terma said, five poisons correlate to five demons, such as attachment and greed link to poisonus Nagas etc.

That's something HH Thinley Norbu said: the five poisons if indulged in become the five demons but in reality they are the five wisdoms.

Dorje Drolo is a wrathful manifestation of Guru Padmasambavha who uses great compassion to bring the teachings of Dharma to sentient beings.

Yes, surprisingly in the information age we live in, there are still some things that can't be gotten on the web....though this may be a good thing.

There is actually a book detailing some of the history of the drolo lineage described in this thread (Kagyu), but the name escapes me now.

I must also include that Dorje Drolo combines great compassion with deep insight/wisdom. This allows us to crush our demons of ignorance.

Kyabje Thrinly Norbu is right, 5 Poisons are the 5 wisdoms.
