Your Words or Action In Life

Our Event at Gyuto Vajrayana Center - Updated 28 June 2009

Greetings from the Gyuto Vajrayana Center

The Venerable Sharpa Choeje Rinpoche will give the Thousand-Armed Chenrezig Empowerment on July 11th at the Santa Clara Convention Center.

Ven. Sharpa Choeje Rinpoche has decided to give the Thousand-Armed Chenrezig Empowerment as his last major teaching event before returning to India.


Chenrezig is said to be the embodiment of all the compassion of all the Buddhas and both His Holiness the Dalai Lama and His Holiness the Karmapa are regarded as emanations of Chenrezig giving teachings to enable all sentient beings to overcome suffering and find true happiness. Amitabha Buddha gave Chenrezig thousand arms to symbolize Chenrezig’s willingness to help all sentient beings.

This empowerment is from the Kriya or Action class of Tantra, which emphasizes the performance of rituals and is a fast and effective way to purify negativities and accumulate merit.

There are no prerequisites for taking this empowerment and no commitments will be given. Please avoide black food such as meat, alcohal, garlic and onion before the empowerment.

Suggested donation: $20 to cover the cost of rental the facility. Everyone is welcome. The empowerment will take place on:

1000-Arm Chenrezig Empowerment
Saturday, July 11, 2 pm - 5 pm
At: The Santa Clara Convention Center, Room J.
5001 Great America Parkway
Santa Clara, CA 95054

Thank you.

Ven. Thupten Donyo
