Vima Ladrup tsok (SI Australia)

Sunday 2nd November 2025
11.00am – 1.30pm AEDT (UTC +11)

Whether or not you have the empowerment, you’re warmly welcome to join online or in person. Those without empowerment may participate and return the liturgy at the end of practice (it will not be shared online).

In-person practice is currently taking place at a sangha member’s home in Lane Cove, Sydney. All are welcome to attend. Please contact Tanya on  0402 258 230. Or email – [email protected]

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.

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.
