A Practical Approach for Embracing Archetypal Feminine Forces

Lama Tsultrim begins by introducing you to the five dakinis, and explores how this tradition has evolved from the time of the Buddha into the modern age. Then she takes you step-by-step into the mandala of the five dakinis: a versatile framework for meditation, self-examination, connecting with nature, and healing. In ten audio sessions, you'll explore:

- The history and practice of feminine energy in Buddhism
- The energies of each dakini--and how to tell which dakini 'family' you belong to
- How to transform the 'five poisons' of the ego into the 'five medicines' of awakening
- The Dakini Mandala--a template for returning to our innate wholeness
- How the feminine can come into wise partnership with the masculine
- The outer, inner, and secret dakini
- In-depth practices for realizing the transformative power of the five dakini virtues

'A dakini is both compassionate and relentless, burning away the ego,' says Lama Tsultrim. 'Wherever we cling, she cuts; whatever we hide from ourselves, she reveals.' Discover how you can bring the wisdom, grace, and fierceness of the dakinis into spiritual practice and everyday life with The Empowered Feminine.
