Tantra is a special inner science that teaches how we can change our mind, ourself and our life.
The teachings of Highest Yoga Tantra are the most rare and precious within Buddhism. They show us how to overcome the limiting views of ourselves, others, and the world around us that give rise to fear, anxiety, and other painful thoughts, and give us perfect methods to access and fully actualize our inner potential so we can become the truly loving, compassionate, and wise person we wish to be. Tantra helps us create positive energy and wisdom through special meditations that lead us to enlightenment.
The practices of Buddha Heruka and Buddha Vajrayogini are the Highest Yoga Tantra practices of Kadampa Buddhism.
In this special two week series Gen Kelsang Thekchen will give an introduction to these practices.
