We spend almost all our time and energy trying to avoid problems and experience happiness by changing the world around us. However, our unhappiness and difficulties do not come from external things, they are the result of the negative actions, or ‘karma’, we performed in the past. By receiving the purifying blessing of Buddha Vajrasattva and turning inwards for solutions we embark on a true path to happiness. The empowerment is a blissful guided meditation in which we make a personal connection with Buddha Vajrasattva. Then, through learning how to engage in the associated meditation practice, our negative karma is dissolved away and we can connect to the endless joy and natural purity that lies within.

In the commentary we will learn the special brief practice of Buddha Vajrasattva, in which, through identifying strongly with this Buddha’s qualities, we can purify all our negative karma and obstructions.
