To participate in the course the empowerment is required.
Saturday at 11:00 a.m. - the Sang Thik Dorje Sempa empowerment (only for those who have taken Refuge in the Three Jewels)
The practice of Sang Thik Dorje Sempa is rather easy, however the Yidam meditation is quite complex. This practice doesn't require any complicated rituals, developed altar, making the mandala from sand or painting it on cloth. However the mandala palace visualisation is the same as in a very complex and expanded practice of Dorje Sempa in the Minling tradition.
During the course we will be introduced to the appropriate colours and proportions of Minling Dorje Sempa mandala (we won't be learning any painting techniques - there is a possiblity to colour the mandala with crayons) in connection with a daily meditation of Yidam Sang Thik Dorje Sempa mandala in accordance to the New Termas tradition (Chokling Tersar). We will also receive detailed explanations of the symbols of the mandala: both of the three-dimensional palace which is visualized in the meditation, as of it's reflection on a flat diagram.
You need to bring with you: callipers, a ruler, a pencil, paints and brushes or crayons, black fountain pen or fibretip pen (the cardboard is provided by the Centre, but there is a possiblity to paint on your own cloth).
For the participation in the course, we especialy encourage those, who are
preparing for a three-year meditation retreat.
Please make your booking no later than June 27th, 2008.
