This essential practice focuses upon Maha Guru Padmasambhava, crowned by Avalokiteshvara, embodiment of compassion, and Amitayus, Lord of Infinite Life. It is said in Guru Rinpoche’s own instructions that the most powerful way to dispel obstacles is to pray to the guru—the master who embodies all the awakened beings of past, present, and future—and he composed this easy-to-follow practice so that we too can call upon the guru, and come to embody his boundless love, wisdom, and compassionate activity.
