Hi guys! Very new here, very interested in Drikung Kagyu and Garchen Rinpoche

Post by [email protected]@ »

Hi guys, as my long intro line says I’m a total newbie and I’m very interested in the Drikung Kagyu lineage and His Eminence Garchen Rinpoche. I’ve practiced in the Karma Kagyu lineage and received empowerments in that lineage as well as the Nyingma and Gelug lineages but I feel a very special connection with Garchen Rinpoche ever since I took a Green Tara empowerment from him. I’m interested in becoming a member of his lineage.

With this Covid thing not going anywhere anytime soon, Garchen Rinpoche’s online empowerments are proving extremely beneficial and the resources provided by the Garchen Institute are incredibly helpful.

Anyway, thanks for accepting me 👋

I’ve read commentaries on the Four Dharmas and the Jewel Ornament of Liberation, but not the actual texts themselves no.
