Vima Ladrup tsok (SI Australia)

Saturday, 11th January, 2025 11 am – 1.30 pm AEDT (UTC +11)

Those who have the empowerment are welcome to join online or onsite at the Sydney Practice Room. Those without the empowerment can still attend onsite and borrow a liturgy to return at the end of the practice, or attend the online practice as a blessing (no liturgy will be screen-shared online).

The Tibetan word for this practice is tsok, which means ‘gathering’ and refers to the gathering of practitioners, the gathering of offerings, the gathering of mandala deities, and the gathering of merit and wisdom. To attend this kind of practice it is helpful, but not essential, to have some familiarity with Vajrayana theory and practice.

Requirements: Vima Ladrup – The Guru Sadhana of Vimalamitra feast practice may be joined by anyone who has received the empowerment. Those without the empowerment are still welcome to join the practice to sit and listen, much as one might join a puja being conducted in a monastery, or if attending in person, read a borrowed liturgy for the duration of the practice. The only requirement in this case is to have faith and respect towards Vimalamitra and Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche. However, in accordance with Rinpoche’s wishes, you won’t be able to access the resources page, download or keep a liturgy until the empowerment has been received.

Please see the SIA Online Prayer List to add names of people who are experiencing obstacles as well as for those who have passed away within the past 49 days. The names will be read at the beginning of the practice, which will be dedicated to them, along with all sentient beings.
