Sengé Dongma
In the Nyingma terma tradition, the lion-faced dakini Sengé Dongma is a secret form of Guru Rinpoché who embodies the wisdom nature of mind and powerfully repels spiritual obstacles, curses, and negativity. When Guru Rinpoché was challenged by 500 magicians at Bodhgaya, she appeared and gave him her mantra to deflect their sorcery and protect the Dharma.
Among the many of Düdjom Lingpa’s termas, Sengé Dongma is considered one of the most intimate practice cycles and rarely bestowed.
Since the early 8th century, Tibetans and Himalayan people have treasured "Namtars" as written or spoken narratives that demonstrate the realization of the Buddhist path by exceptional practitioners. These namtars, or spiritual biographies, serve as inspirational guides on the path to enlightenment.
Today, Namtars Foundation aims to record, preserve, and freely offer the world a written and electronic treasury of the oral wisdom of Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhism.
