A detailed and lucid explanation of the history and practice of Vajrakilaya, embodying the buddhas' enlightened activity and often used to dispel obstacles.

"The practice of Vajrakilaya blazes at the heart of the ancient Vajrayana traditions of Tibet. The wrathful heruka Vajrakilaya is the yidam deity who manifests in an intensely wrathful yet compassionate form in order to subjugate the delusion and negativity that can arise as obstacles to the practice of dharma. In fact, the practice of Vajrakilaya is famous in the Tibetan Buddhist world as the most powerful for removing obstacles, destroying the forces hostile to compassion, and purifying the spiritual pollution so prevalent in this age." Sogyal Rinpoche.

"If you choose Vajrakilaya as your yidam deity, it is very easy to progress on the path, since all obstacles are naturally dispelled and you can achieve the supreme siddhi without ant fault. Vajrakilaya is none other than Vajrapani manifesting as a yidam heruka - the one who clears away all hindrances on the path to enlightenment." Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.

P'howa is a Vajrayana Buddhist method by which one's consciousness is in te ntionally transferred to a pure realm at the moment of death. P'howa training enables one to approach death as a unique opportunity for liberation from cyclic existence rather than as an experience of fear and uncer-tainty. In this book, Chagdud Khadro explains the process of dying, the steps involved in p'howa training based on the hidden treasure text of the Buddhist meditation master Rigdzin Longsal Nyingpo, the means of accomplishing p'howa at the time of death either for oneself or for others, and integrating p'howa into one's daily meditation practice.

Chagdud Khadro is the wife of His Eminence Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche and a lama of the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. Recognizing her signs of accomplishment in p'howa practice as well as her ability to help others achieve signs, Rinpoche authorized her to teach p'howa, which she has done in the United States, Europe, South America, and Australia. She is developing p'howa support groups among practitioners who make a commitment to assist each other at the time of dying.

His Eminence Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche, a highly revered master of the Nyingma tradition, has taught widely throughout the world and has established many centers for the study and practice of Vajrayana Buddhism. His main center in North America is located at Rigdzin Ling in Junction City, California. He currently lives in Três Coroas, Brazil, where he is establishing his South American seat.
