Experience the blessings and profound wisdom of Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava ("Lotus Born"), the revered teacher and guide who established the Buddha's teachings in Tibet during the 8th century. Revered for his kindness and wisdom, Guru Rinpoche is considered the embodiment of the Buddhas of the past, present, and future. His blessings are especially beneficial for those new to the Dharma, particularly Vajrayana practices.
