Hevajra Initiation and Teachings | 4-Week Practice Series
We are happy to announce a new practice series on Hevajra, one of the principal meditational deities of the Mother Tantras and the heart practice of the great masters Marpa Lotsawa and Tsangnyön Heruka.
“He” signifies great compassion and “Vajra” wisdom, so Hevajra embodies their inseparable union. Together with his consort Nairatmya (“selflessness”), he expresses the union of bliss and emptiness at the core of the highest yoga tantras. Alongside Chakrasamvara, the Hevajra Tantra is also a primary source for the yogas of channels, winds and drops, including inner heat (tummo).
The series opens with the Hevajra Initiation (Jenang, blessing-permission), followed by three weeks of teachings and practice that give participants a solid basis for understanding and engaging in the practice.
Schedule:
The series begins with the Hevajra Initiation given by Lama Glenn on Saturday, November 7, followed by his teachings on the Saturdays of November 14, 21 and 28. On each Monday following these sessions (November 9, 16, 23 and 30), Jonas will lead a guided practice and clarification session. All sessions take place via Zoom at 8 pm UK time (9 pm Italy, 10 pm Lithuania, 3 pm Eastern Time US).
(While it is recommended to attend live, recordings will be available in case you miss a session or want to rewatch it.)
Language:
The teaching language is English. Translation into Russian and Spanish will be available.
