Aspiration of Samantabhadra - Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

Aspiration of Samantabhadra - Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

Author: Sakya Monastery of Tibetan Buddhism June 28, 2011 Duration: 41:31
We are extremely fortunate to have His Eminence Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche give the oral transmission (rLung) of the Aspiration of Samantabhadra prayer and a teaching on the meaning and significance of this important prayer. He is recognized as the main incarnation of the great Buddhist master Dzongsar Khyentse Jamyang Chokyi Lodro, who was one of H.H. Dagchen Rinpoche’s root lamas. H.E. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche is also considered to be the emanation of Manjushri. He is the head of Dzongsar Monastery in Tibet, Bhutan, and India, Dzongsar Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö Institute in India, and the Khyentse Foundation. He has authored many Dharma books, including What Makes You Not a Buddhist (Shambhala 2007).
