BLESSING OF LIBERATION THROUGH SIGHT

The 'liberation through sight' mantra amulets are printed with precious mantras in Sanskrit calligraphy and their edges are laced with sacred dust derived from a relic in Garchen Rinpoche's possession. The relic is a finger joint from a statue called 'Five Miracles in One Body, Eleven-Faced, Thousand Arms and Eyes Chenrezig,' which was originally housed and venerated in the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, Tibet.

Achi Chokyi Drolma is the Dharma Protecter of the Drikung Kagyu.

According to prophecy in the Chakrasamvara tantra it is said, "The head of the Karma Dakinis will come to the area of Tidro cave in Drikung. This will be a nirmanakaya manifestation of Vajrayogini.

Around the eleventh century in Shoto, in the area of Drikung (central Tibet), there lived a family who could not conceive a child. In order to bear a child they made a pilgrimage to Swayambhu in Nepal. They prayed fervently for a child and one night the woman, Driza Dharzam, had a dream that a brightly shining sun appeared in the east and radiated light in the ten directions and the sun then dissolved into her womb and radiated light which filled the whole universe, especially illuminating the country of her birth. In the same night, her husband Nanam Chowopal had a dream that a rosary of clear white light emanated from the eastern Buddha field and entered the womb of his wife. In the morning they discussed their dreams and he said, 'a special son will be born to us and we should take much care until this child is born.' They performed a tsog offering; made strong prayers for the fulfillment of their wishes and then returned to their native land in Drikung.
