Lotuschef in Conversation - Samaya & Abhiseka

We need cool clear calm Mindset for cultivation. Let us draw upon the Blue Elixir for all these and also wisdom.

In recent article, someone said he is Non Buddhist. He said when he needs Abhiseka, he has no need to take refuge but Grand Master will come & touch his head!
Hahaha!
What an ideal scenario? Like a genie granting his wishes!!!

I had already shared recently Guru's take on refuge and abhiseka [empowerment].

When we take refuge, there is a sort of MOU [memorandum of understanding] between Root Guru & individual called Samaya.

In the Dragon Robe Sheng Ji Saga, I explained Samaya thoroughly too.

When One's Root Guru gives Abhiseka, the student receiving it has to cultivate as per instruction and use this for the benefit of all sentient beings.

All Tantrayana's Abhisekas govern by Samaya between Guru & Student.
Breaching Samaya, one drops into Vajra Hell or Timeless Hell.

A student asked me recently: The Medan trip is your idea or Guru's?

I smiled at him.

With refuge taking, I took on Samaya between Guru & Self.
With Abhiseka, I undertake to USE for the benefit of Sentient Beings.
With regular cultivation, I learn to Yoga with Root Guru.

Guru said: When One yogas with a certain Yidam, the Yidam will never leave you.

AA: [everything appeared out of sudden when we needed certain stuff

this is a testimony to Asanga Bodhisattva who practised the sadhana of maitreya for 12 years, i can so relate to it.
after almost giving up in the 12th year, finally maitreya appeared and told him: I've never forsaken you in these 12 years, i'm with you right from the start you practised me, it's just your karma that enshrouded you
what a very touching thing to know]. 


See why Samaya & Abhiseka are critical requisites of cultivation in Tantrayana?

Denouncing self as Buddhist but knowing Abhiseka is needed? 

On the other hand, when One is Enlightened, Buddhist or not, does not matter anymore, as All becomes ONE! 

Hahaha! I hope readers enjoy reading this article and pick up some useful tips.
