Dear Dharma brothers and sisters.
We are happy to announce the Drubchen of Amitayus, which will be run from 16 to 25 of November 2014 in Russia near Moscow.
The drubchen of Buddha Amitaus of Pema Lingpa tradition will be guided by our precious teacher His Eminence Gangteng Tulku Rinpoche.
The Drubchen itself will start on 17-th of November. On 16-th we expect to receive a teaching on sadhana given by Kenpo Karma Wangyel or Rinpoche himself.
Amitayus is Buddha of long life, special form of Buddha Amitabha – Buddha of Boundless Light. Amitayus is being prayed to for long and happy life, health and wealth, diminishing or destroying all situations that endanger life force or long life, as well as for achieving success in worldly matters.
However, the basic frame for all this practice is realization of the state “beyond birth and death” which in Vajrayana is being called “vidhyadhara of immortal life”.
A practice of Amitaus is particularly important and auspicious in Pema Lingpa tradition, because the great terton Pema Lingpa manifested long life siddhis by his practice.
Together with Gangteng Tulku Rinpoche are coming above 10 attendants: musicians, dancers, umze (leading practices), chopon (ritual man). They are all outstanding and masters in Rinpoche’s monasteries; many of them accomplished 3 – year – long retreat and they have gone through long buddhist education and training. We are also expecting arrival of Khenpo Karma Wangyal.
During drubchen a “non dual Dharma medicine” – mendrub will be prepared. The act of preparation is unique in itself. Medicine includes precious substances and blessings of all buddhas and Dharma.
Participation in drubchen is for everybody, regardless knowledge and Dharma experience.

Yeshe Khorlo Russia
