We are deeply honoured to announce that Kyabj\u00e9 Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche will visit Sydney in October 2026.<\/p>\n
| Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche is one of the most highly revered masters in the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism and an important holder of its major lineages. He spent almost 25 years with his teacher and grandfather, Kyabj\u00e9 Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, receiving extensive teachings, empowerments and transmissions, and he continues that lineage today through his activities.<\/p>\n
Rinpoche has agreed to give the following empowerments (wang):<\/p>\n
\u2014Rongzom Kilaya<\/strong> \u2013 The Uncommon Vajrak\u012blaya lineage of Rongzom Pa\u1e47\u1e0dita stands among the most precious and extraordinary transmissions preserved within the Nyingma tradition and is important for the Yeshi Khorlo sangha. Learn more here.<\/p>\n \u2014Yang Nying Pudri<\/strong> \u2013 Razor of the Innermost Essence is a Vajrakilaya terma cycle revealed by Tert\u00f6n Sogyal Lerab Lingpa. It serves as one of the two yidam practices for the Rigpa sangha and forms part of their foundational Three Roots practices. It allows students to practise the brief sadhanas of Vajrakilaya. Learn more here.<\/p>\n \u2014The 100 Peaceful and Wrathful Deities (Zhitro) of Chokgyur Lingpa<\/strong> \u2013 the Zhitro practice from the terma (treasure) cycle of the master Chokgyur Lingpa comprises the complete mandala empowerment of the 42 peaceful deities and 58 wrathful deities; it is a practice within the terma tradition and serves as an empowerment of the Guhyagarbha (Secret Essence) mandala. When teaching the Guhyagarbha Tantra, His Holiness Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche required the qualification of the kama (oral transmission) empowerment of the Nyingma Guhyagarbha peaceful and wrathful deities. However, His Holiness granted permission that the Zhitro empowerment from the Chokgyur Lingpa terma could serve as a substitute for the kamaempowerment of the Guhyagarbha peaceful and wrathful deities.\u0f84<\/p>\n Receiving this empowerment also qualifies students<\/strong> to study Chapter 10 of the Y\u00f6nten Dz\u00f6 (The Treasury of Precious Qualities), the famous treatise by Jikm\u00e9 Lingpa, in which he expounds the entire Buddhist path from the shravaka yana teachings up to the Great Perfection.<\/p>\n \u2014Tigl\u00e9 Gyachen<\/strong>, the profound innermost secret guru yoga practice of the Longchen Nyingtik tradition.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rinpoche will also grant the reading transmissions (lung)<\/strong> for the practices associated with all of these empowerments, as well as the lungs for: Matthieu Ricard, who served as Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche\u2019s translator for more than twenty years will translate for Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche during the empowerments.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We are deeply honoured to announce that Kyabj\u00e9 Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche will visit Sydney in October 2026. | Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche is one of the…<\/p>","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":8421,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[132,108],"audience":[21,22],"tribe_events_cat":[103],"meca_event_language":[51],"class_list":["post-8413","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-special-event","tag-vajrayana","audience-open-to-all","audience-rigpa-sangha","tribe_events_cat-empowements","meca_event_language-english","cat_empowements"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/8413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/8413\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8415,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/8413\/revisions\/8415"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8421"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8413"},{"taxonomy":"audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/audience?post=8413"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=8413"},{"taxonomy":"meca_event_language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rigpa.org\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/meca_event_language?post=8413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
