Yamantaka Purification Ritual

Spiritual Director Kushok Lobsang Dhamchoe invites you to join him for an in person or online Yamantaka Purification Ritual on Saturday, December 20, 2025. This powerful Purification Ritual will have a significant positive effect on all who attend. Please attend in person if possible as there are great blessing to receiving this purification in person in front of our Teacher and the Buddhas.
Anyone who is suffering from anxiety, stress, depression, or generalized fear can particularly benefit. In Buddhist philosophy it is understood that many mental health issues are caused by harmful spirits or negative forces, which are impossible for Western doctors to see. These negative beings can steal a person’s energy, harm their mind, create a sense of fear or anxiety, and eventually cause physical illness. All of these symptoms can be helped by this ritual.
Prior to the ritual, Kushok will spend one hour generating himself as Yamantaka, visualizing Yamantaka very clearly, and cultivating great Bodhicitta and emptiness. Harmful spirits are fearful of Bodhicitta. In the aspect of Yamantaka (wrathful Manjushri – the wisdom deity), Kushok will threaten the negative spirits so they will stop harming you, order them to stop attacking you, and drive them far away. Harmful spirits are very afraid of Yamantaka and will leave. This is followed by Kushok inviting all the lineage masters from Vajradhara to His Holiness the Dalai Lama to enter the space and bless each person so that the harmful spirits cannot affect them again. This is a very rare and special opportunity to receive such a powerful purification and blessing.

Anyone with an interest in overcoming mental or physical health issues or who wishes to receive the blessings of Yamantaka is invited to attend this special event.
