Chag’düd Trülku Rinpoche
His Eminence Chag’düd Trülku Rinpoche
This photograph, taken in Cardiff, shows Chag’düd Rinpoche sitting before his chog-sé (throne table) on which are standing a bumpa (empowerment vase) and tsé-bum (long-life vase) along with his bell, Vajra, skull damaru, and Anuyoga ritual text. Chag’düd Rinpoche had given an empowerment of phowa – the rite of transference of consciousness. He had recently given this teaching in mid-Wales, where Ngak’chang Rinpoche had assisted by giving background explanation of terminology and Tantric theory. Ngak’chang Rinpoche was accompanied on that occasion by Ngala Nor’dzin & Ngala ’ö-Dzin.
