SUMMARY:White Tara Practice with Gape Lama
DESCRIPTION:Tara Embodies the female wisdom activity of the mind.  \nThis special White Tara practice will be led by the Venerable Gape Lama of Garchen Buddhist Institute\, and will include teachings on  Deity yoga\, also called generation or creation stage practice (one of the main methods of Vajrayana Buddhism).\nAll deity yoga practices have three main components.  In the beginning\, we take refuge and generate bodhicitta\, the altruistic attitude to attain enlightenment for the benefit of others.  In the middle\, or main part of the practice\, we follow a text\, called a sadhana\, and visualize ourselves as the deity\, chant his or her mantra\, and after dissolving the visualization\, rest in the nature of mind.  In the end\, we dedicate the virtue from doing the practice to the benefit of all sentient beings.\nThrough the practice of deity yoga\, we transform our ordinary perception of ourselves into that of the deity.  Through this very skillful method\, we can realize our Buddha nature\, and attain ultimate realization.\n \n\n1st & 3rd  Wednesdays\, Every Month  \nAda Pierce McCormick BuildingUniversity of Arizona Campus1401 East First Street\nTucson\, Arizona  85719(Click here for a map)   \nFor More Information:  Zehra Conner: 299-1083
