Arya Avalokiteshvara Simhanada: Exalted Lion's Roar Chenrezig Who Dispels All Diseases eBook
Anyone can do this practice. However, if you have not received a great initiation of any class of tantra followed by the subsequent permission (jenang) of Lion’s Roar Chenrezig, you cannot visualize yourself as the deity. Instead, you should visualize Lion’s Roar Chenrezig above your head. Avalokiteshvara Simhanada is associated with removing sickness and disease, especially those caused by nagas. This meditation instruction is from Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche. The translation of the visualization was done by Barry Clark for the Rinjung Gyatsa set of empowerments given by Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche during the First Enlightened Experience Celebration in Bodhgaya, India, 1982. 2020 edition.
