SUMMARY:Singhamukha Empowerment and Transmission
DESCRIPTION:Within the profound expanse of Tantrayana\, Singhamukha (Sengdongma)\, the lion-faced wisdom ḍākinī arises in a blaze of enlightened wrath\, her radiant clarity cutting through every veil of ignorance and confusion. As the fierce expression of primordial wisdom\, she dismantles obstructing forces and swiftly overturns the flow of negative energies. In the tantric understanding\, her power to  reverse black magic is not an act of harm\, but the transformative force of awakened mind: turning back destructive influences\, dissolving harmful intentions\, and restoring all phenomena to their pure\, luminous nature. Her wrath is inseparable from boundless compassion\, protecting practitioners and clearing the path toward realization. \n*On Dakini Day\, December 14th\, 2025*\, the *sacred Singhamukha Empowerment and Transmission* will be bestowed by *Khenpo Tsultrim Tenzin Rinpoche* at the *Tibetan Meditation Center*. This rare occasion offers practitioners the chance to enter directly into the blessings of the lion-faced ḍākinī—receiving her fearless energy\, her purifying activity\, and her swift liberating presence. May all who enter her mandala be shielded from obstacles\, uplifted by wisdom\, and guided toward the indestructible clarity of the awakened mind.
