In this guru yoga on Guru Vajrasattva, we apply the four opponent powers to purify our negative karma. First, we take refuge, we rely on our trustworthy teacher, the Buddha, and the path he showed us. Then we regret all our negative actions, which only create obstacles on our path. Next, we apply the remedy; in this practice it is the recitation of the Vajrasattva mantra. To conclude, we apply the power of resolve; we make a pledge to do our best not to do these negative actions again.
* Disclaimer: By joining the Zoom room, you accept Lhagsam to record the teacher who is always in the spotlight; participants are never recorded.
