I only know the 8 Kagye Nyingma Herukas, where Demchok is sometimes described as the same as Yangdag.....
What are the 8 to which Hevajra belongs?

Hevajra = Shri Heruka (yang dag), according to HHST.

Ah...ok!
Thank you!

Hi Lelopa, Thanks for your reply. I did find your post in this forum regarding this topic from some time ago, I believe you provided the source of that sadhana to the Drikung Terton Lho Nuden Dorje. Let's hope we can find the sadhana text somehow. Actually, at this point I would be very interested ...

Hi All, Could someone kindly give me the Sadhana Text of Red Yamantaka / Rakta Yamari from the Drikung Kagyu Lineage please. This follows the empowerment given my H.E. Garchen Rinpoche and lung for the sadhana was given by Lama Nima at the conclusion of the teachings sessions by H.E. Garchen Rinpoc...

There are three sadhanas I know: the short daily, the las.byang, and the so called secret sadhana.
they posted the lasbyang - medium length.

Ah - thanks!

Wrong, here it is "Hum - thanks!"

Do you know which is the sadhana given on the GBI website? It was posted at some point overnight and is under the texts for the current online retreat. Kirt Is the one that was posted the short one or the longer one though? There are three sadhanas I know: the short daily, the las.byang, and the so...

As a background, over the 15+ years that I have translated and retranslated this text, the translation of the teachings of the give la zla ba masters have always been the most problematic, because, as has been highlighted here, of the key term "la zla ba." In my first translation, accompanying a te...

What are the prerequisites and commitments for this empowerment? Also, is there anywhere that I can learn more about this form of Padmasambhava? There you can find an explaination from Garchen Rinpoche about this empowerment/practice. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3485507918165288&id=...

Yes, refuge and bodichitta prayers are universal, there’s no issue with that.

I do not know this sadhana but there are f.e. refuge-prayers to the special deity of the sadhana:
"I take refuge in the wrathful heruka" or
"I take refuge in this, or that long-life-deity, Dakini, "etc.

Just my 2¢

Didn't work.....

Spam-folder?

Forgive me. I thought this might be of interest to the person looking for an online Guru Rinpoche empowerment. Perhaps you can see the source of my confusion. You are right though, they didn’t specify wrathful or peaceful, sitting or standing. I’m sorry that this troubled you. I don't think it trou...

The OP didn't mention any wrathful Padmasambhava

Done!

The Raktayamari empowerment was held in Los Angeles by Rinchen Choling. GBI never had the sadhana translated. I worked there at the time. Perhaps reaching out to Rinchen Choling is better for that. Also I think the Raktayamari was to connect his students with completion stage practices with in the ...

In recent months, GBI has been very good about distributing relevant texts for teachings and empowerments. I expect that they will make something available to those who attend the empowerment stream. I tried to get a sadhana of Raktayamari.... since 2017.... not so easy to get an answer, or even th...

Tsewang dzinpas main sadhana is anuyoga. There is an unelaborate ati version and an maha ati sadhana. The 4th empowerment is a rigpai tsal wang. This is the auspicious verse from the maha ati sadhana: HUM. Guru luminous’empty, self’aware -enlightened accomplished yidams form vital’energy and manta ...
