Pema Rigdzin

In person & Online
​
Guided meditation and visualization to clear away illnesses caused by subtle imbalances and blockages and to restore health and vitality.
​
This unique method of spiritual healing from the Yuthok Nyingthig tradition was revealed by the great 12th-century physician and meditation teacher from Tibet, the adept Yuthok Yönten Gönpo.
​
This meditation will focus on the five organs: liver, heart, lungs, stomach and kidneys as the doorway to revealing the ultimate nature of the five Buddhas families. We will explore the five organs as the basis for balancing the three constitutions, healing illnesses and emotional distress as well as herbs, minerals, and animal products that bring restorative qualities to each of one.
Traditionally these are instructions shared with those who completed the preliminary practices and outer Guru Yoga in this lineage. It is presented here as an introduction to the system as an auspicious interdependence.
