Mahamudra initiation (?)

Post by Lusitano »

Dear friends,

Some years ago, in 2014, Garchen Rinpoche came to Portugal and gave “5 Fold Mahamudra Initiation”.

At that time i wasn’t really aware of what was meant by that initiation. And was not very aware of the Kagyu teachings.

Can anyone explain please? Is it associated with some specific sadhana/deity? Which one?

Thank you 🙏

Yes, Chakrasamvara.

Thank you! :)

And thanks also for the link! Very useful!

At the time there was no sadhana or text, do you know if it is related with any sadhana or specific text?
