Description
An empowerment is a special guided meditation where we make a connection with an enlightened being, or Buddha, and receive their help and inspiration. In this empowerment we have the opportunity to make a connection with Buddha White Tara.
White Tara is a female enlightened being whose function is to bestow long life, wisdom, and good fortune. If we rely upon her with faith, she will protect us from many kinds of fear and danger. It is said that living beings receive Tara’s blessings as swiftly as the wind moves because she is the manifestation of the wind element of all Buddhas.
We will also learn and be guided through “The Yoga of Buddha White Tara”, a very blessed meditation practice that will bring us good fortune and help us pacify obstacles to a long and happy life.
