Dear Dao Bums, Sakya Trichen Rinpoche is coming to Europe this June, and I'm considering meeting him. During his visit he will be giving an empowerment or initiation into a tantric buddhist practice. It's called "Indestructible Wakefulness" or "Chimé Pagme Nyingtik". I tried to look up online what it's about, and it's a White Tara longevity practice. I've long wanted to practice and experience Tibetan Buddhism in a more profound way (my only prior experience is basic level tummo, karmamudra and lucid dreaming using a mix of buddhist and bön dream yoga). Do we have any long term practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism who can weigh in with some experiences and comments: 1) Any insights, experiences or comments about the Sakya lineage? 2) Any insights, experiences or comments about Sakya Trichen Rinpoche? 3) Any insights, experiences or comments about White Tara Practice? (in general or this specific pratice), 4) What can I expect from this one-day empowerment? (experiences appreciated)
