Je Tsongkhapa Empowerment and teachings on Faith in Guru Tsongkhapa and the Blessed Practice of the Migtsema Request Prayer

Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong will grant the empowerment of the Wisdom Buddha Je Tsongkhapa. She will also explain how to develop and improve our faith in our Spiritual Guide seen as one with Je Tsongkhapa, and on the practice of Migtsema, the special mantra and prayer of praise and request to Je Tsongkhapa.

This prayer is very blessed because it was originally uttered by Buddha Manjushri, and comes from Manjushri’s Emanation Scripture, which he transmitted directly to Je Tsongkhapa. Many of Je Tsongkhapa’s followers attained very high realizations through the practice of Migtsema combined with the Guru yoga of Je Tsongkhapa. The Migtsema practice is the best method for increasing our faith in Je Tsongkhapa and his teachings, and if we practise Je Tsongkhapa’s teachings sincerely with faith, we can attain enlightenment quickly and easily.
