Guru Padmasambhava Practice and Riwo Sangchö
Guru Rinpoche or Padmasambhava was one of the Indian masters responsible for bringing Buddhism to Tibet in the 8th century. He helped establish the first monastery, Samye, and it was during his tenure that the first monks were ordained. Padmasambhava also tamed many of the negative forces that obstructed the teachings & practice of Buddhism, converting powerful entities into protective guardians of the Dharma. Nechung Monastery’s roots are associated with this preeminent master.
Riwo Sangchö is a mountain incense offering to enlightened beings and local spirits for purification and removal of interferences.
