My first empowerments and teachings were the Nyingtik Yabzhi, followed by the Dudjom Tersar Ngondro which I completed by September 1996. Then I received Troma Nakmo, Dudjom Lingpa’s Nang Jang, Yeshe Lama, Rigdzin Sokdrup Tsalung, and Chetsun Nyingtik. I engaged in two six week group retreats each year, 3 months of tsalung, 100 day Chetsun retreat, and a solitary 3 month retreat. After reading Shabkar’s biography and others, it became clear that the way we were being taught and practicing was not how the great masters of the past did. So in August of 99’, I went to Nepal to learn the authentic tradition. | ||
