These article extracted from the following site. Its purpose is for your information only. I personally feel that cultivation depends much on Affinity.
Can one cultivate Phowa Sadhana without Empowerment? In doing so, it is
according to rules or Doctrines?
Answer:
As per rules, empowerment for Phowa Practice is required. However, several
masters have given speeches whereby one can practice without the relevant
empowerment provided this individual has steadfast confidence.
If
you wish to cultivate and have Confidence in Phowa Sadhana, this is your
condition.
Without Confidence, also no empowerment history, no history of cultivating Tantrayana, that is pointless, you do not qualify to cultivate Phowa.
However if you have full Confidence in this
practice, no history of empowerment and Tantrayana cultivation, you can also
learn, can also cultivate.
The crucial point is through empowerment one is better equipped to cultivating to maturity.

The
criteria for this yoga to mature is whether during the cultivation process do
you have Renouncing Heart; Boddhicitta; Confidence.
Confidence towards Gurus, Triple Gems, and
especially steadfast immovable confidnece towards Phowa Sadhana, this is most
important.
If do not have confidence, do not learn, do not
practice.
Learn, practice also meaningless.
Learn, practice also meaningless.
If you have Confidence in Phowa Sadhana, in Gurus, you can then learn, you can then practice, will sure have meaning.
