His Holiness Dudjom Sangye Pema Zhepa Rinpoche's final speech after concluding Dudjom Tersar Empowerment at Samye Memorial Monastery in May, 2014
Today, I want to share brief discourse about the Empowerment in general and the Dudjom Tersar Empowerment in particular. Until today, I have finished to confer almost entire empowerments from Dudjom Lingpa's Collected Works, except few Dharmapala life-empowerments and life-entrustments. As for the lineage, from whom I received, can be counted as follows: First one is Treasure Revealer Dudjom Lingpa (1835-1904) himself transmitted to his eight sons and heart disciple Gyurme Ngedon Wangpo - to Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje (1904-1987) - to Gojo Orgyen Chechok - and he conferred to me. Second one is from Dudjom Lingpa himself to his son Dorje Dradul (1891-1959) - to Kyabje Chatral Rinpoche, from whom I received the complete practice manuals and Dzogchen teachings. Third one is from Dudjom Lingpa himself to his son Trime Ozer (1881-1924) - to Dzongter Kunzang Nyima (1904-1958) - to Tulku Theklo (b. 1937) from whom I received entire Empowerments, including Dharmapala life-entrustments. Moreover, I also received empowerments and important major teachings of upper and lower Dudjom Tersar from Kyabje Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche, like Secret-seal Heart Practices, Three Root Practices, Drollo and Vajrakilaya etc. Transmission lineage is like that.
