Following on from his teaching on The Union of Mahamudra and Dzok Chen and the initiation of Buddha Amitabha this year in Yorkshire, Lama Jampa will extend this by giving the related transmission of Phowa (Transference) in September.

These form part of the famed cycle known as ‘Sky Dharma’ and are extraordinary skilful practices focussed upon rebirth in Amitabha’s pure spiritual environment known as Sukhavati (‘The Blissful’) the radiant light of the undying buddha-nature. 

Please note that in order to attend this teaching you need to have previously received an Amithabha or Chenerezi initiation.

The transmission of Phowa and Karma Chakme's Guide to Phowa Practice

1:30 - 4:30pm

Phowa (‘transference’) is one of the most cherished practices of Vajrayana. Amongst the various cycles of Phowa, that of Amitabha is the most widespread since it provides the means for achieving rebirth in the realm of great bliss at the time of death. 

Lama Jampa will give the transmission for the practice of Amitabha Phowa (Transference) according to the guide composed by Karma Chakme, and explicate its significance for the time of death.
