H.E. Jetsun Kushok will kindly bestow teachings at these other Centers :
SAKYA DECHEN LING in Albany, CA
The Vajrayogini Blessing is on Saturday, August 27th, 2016, and the full seven day teaching of the Vajrayogini practice immediately following that, is from Sunday, August 28th through Saturday, September 3rd. SEE THE WEBSITE FOR DETAILS.
NOTE: The Vajrayogini Blessing and teaching require the pre-requisite of a high tantra empowerment by a Sakya Lama. This means, Hevajra or Cakrasamvara, and the empowerment of Nairatmya (above) will qualify you.

The Empowerment of Green Tara Information is to be announced.
Her Eminence Jetsun Kushok is the daughter of Vajradhara Ngawang Kunga Rinchen, the previous head of the Sakya lineage, and the sister of His Holiness Sakya Trizin, the current head of the Sakya lineage. Considered an emanation of Vajrayogini, she began dharma studies at the age of six, began teaching at eleven, and became a fully empowered Sakya lineage holder at eighteen. After escaping to India in the late 1950s, she emigrated with her family to Canada in 1971 and now lives in British Columbia. Until 1998, H. E. Jetsunma worked full-time as a weaver, while also raising her children, running dharma centers, and practicing—often through the night. She has spent all of her life unselfishly teaching and practicing the Vajrayana Bodhisattva path. She is now a full-time dharma teacher and the founder of Sakya Thubten Tsechen Ling in Vancouver, BC and many centers worldwide, including Sakya Dechen Ling in California.
