Satisfied Buddhist - Domo Geshe Rinpoche

The Heruka tantras, the highest, most comprehensive of all of the Buddhist tantras revealed in this world-system, are associated with practices traditionally done around Mount Meru, as well as other places. Mount Meru is also known as Kailash and called Khang Rinpoche or precious snow mountain by Tibetans and is the c enter of the Heruka world. Many Heruka practitioners are not in human form.

Even without initiation, to attend a group recitation and practic...

There is a renewed life force vigor that comes from aligning our energetic being with higher functioning values of heroic compassion inner models. To damage our life force by beating it into submission when we begin to feel stronger and more capable, weakens the trust between body and mind and would prevent correct tantric practice.
