Gyalton Rinpoche has been presiding over a ten-day great accomplishment
practice of the Eight Sadhana Teachings: The Assembly of Sugatas at the main
shrine hall of the Palpung Sherabling Monastic College.
The
tulkus, lamas, khenpos and the entire monastic community began this sacred
drubchen by establishing the foundation of the five perfect conditions. After
that they gathered all the pure offering substances that are required for
support, fulfilment and accomplishment, and then they engaged in the creation
and completion practices of this sacred mandala that is the pinnacle of all
yanas, the quintessence of all sutras and tantras, and the highest among all
the old and new mandalas that encompass all Buddha families. They are
performing this great accomplishment practice according to the gurus’ pith
instructions combined with the ritual tradition of the lineage, complete with
all of its elements, such as the preliminary land consecration, establishing
outer and inner boundaries, drawing the mandala and arranging its ornaments,
visualization, meditation and recitation practices of the actual sadhana, the
fire puja to amend mistakes and accomplish the four activities, as well as the
final receiving the siddhis and butter lamp prayer.
