nice one , glad he got that , we are in #kali #yuga , which at the end of comes the massive destruction,
where the earth is cleansed and made ready for the next go of the human story.
They the evil ones have deffo got the tricks from #Tibet to arrange the next #incarnation , so they keep incarnating into their families,
not doing good but quite the opposite , and they have got super rich and only use their ill gotten wealth to do evil things. #Fluoride is their big weapon to destroy #brains and #money buys #souls cheap these #end days .

Burning the Sun’s Braids: New Poetry from Tibet, ed. & trans. Bhuchung D. Sonam

‘Stitched from multiple voices speaking of multiple experiences and reactions, this collection of poetry weaves a portrait of a land where “fearsome military guards like tigers and leopards / Are even devouring the butter lamps” (“My Vision Of The Potala”, Dhi Lhaden) where people still find the courage to “every now and then … say ‘NO!’” (“Crime of Love”, Dhi Lhaden).’

#AchiChokyi is #Tibetan (ca. 1000s) but she is proficient enough in #Sanskrit to respond to the name #Dharma #Tara.

She is powerful enough that she composed herself into #sadhanas. And these were so powerful that this was the experience of H. H. First Karmapa (called Druptop here):

...the sound of a #damaru [resounded] from the sky and the melodious voice of a ḍākinī arose. Druptop asked the Lord of the Dharma (Chos rje) how this could be, [and] he replied, “The voice which arises is a Wisdom ḍākinī, my Grandmother.”

Druptop insisted, “What is her sadhana like? How is [her] practice done?” ] Because of that [Jigten Sumgon] bestowed many extensive sadhana and the fifteen chapters [of] the Precious Diadem in the Sadhana Cycle (Sgrub skor rin chen cod pan le’u). Druptop said, “Having reviewed the oral transmission with earnest, the essence [of the] goddess (hri ma) rose up from the sphere of reality, [and I] perceived [her] with divine sight from the sphere of wisdom.

Departing from the behavior of many of #Tibet’s mundane, oath-bound protectors, however, Achi takes multiple roles, making her an interesting point of departure in this category. According to at least one sadhana, besides being taken as one’s dharma protector, she can be taken as one’s inner-most secret lama (gsang bla ma), one’s inner yidam (nang ltar yi dam), or one’s secret ḍākinī consort.

She did not perish in a usual way:

...she flew into the air on the back of a #blue #horse, accompanied by a #small #dog, and departed for the #Pure Lands.
