DESCRIPTION
This is the Mahayana and Vajrayanaessential practice. It is very effective to new practitioners, opening their hearts to the path of liberation. Also, this practice is very helpful for someone who has been practicing a long time, yet has lots of obstacles that they are encountering on the path. This practice is also for someone who is a more advanced practitioner, this will lead deeper to the heart essence of the Buddhist path
