The Mahakala Shanglon Dorje Dudul is the Dharma protector specifically connected to the protection of Tibetan medicine. The Sorig Khang sangha in Ukraine has been doing a nonstop vigil for this Dharma protector since winter 2022. They welcome your practice support. To let them know that you will be participating, please complete this Google form.
July 3rd is a Dharma Protector practice day on the Tibetan calendar. Let's do it.
Here is the Shanglon puja:
HOW TO DO THE PRACTICE:
BEFORE STARTING THE PRACTICE:
According to the instructions of Dr. Nida, during the practice of the Protectors, we visualize ourselves as Hayagriva. His body is empty, transparent, without physical organs, crystal clear, luminous, red in color, according to thangka.
In the heart center we visualize the root syllable of Hayagriva - HRI, with rays of light emanating from it. In this capacity, we invite Shanglon (or Retinue) and begin the Invocation, etc.
Primarily to this we do the practice for ourselves and purify ourselves. Without this, not a single Sadhana or mantra will work.
It is necessary to realize the power of the mantra (s), and for this only practice is needed (more recitations).
And certain marks of practice.
Before the Practice, we hold the visualization of ourselves as HAYAGRIVA or VAJRAPANI and read (for ourselves personally, not in Zoom):
BODHICHITTA
In the Buddha, Dharma and Supreme Assembly (Sangha)
Before Awakening, I take Refuge.
Through the merit of generosity and other paramitas.
May I achieve Buddhahood for the benefit of all sentient beings!
FOUR UNMEASURABLE
May all beings have happiness and the causes for happiness.
May all beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering.
May all beings never be separated from the highest happiness beyond all suffering.
May all beings abide in equanimity, free from attachment and aversion.
