Brief explanation
Konchok Chidu (Tib. དཀོན་མཆོག་སྤྱི་འདུས་) – “The Embodiment of the Precious Ones” is a terma cycle revealed by the great terton Rigdzin Jatson Nyingpo (1585–1656), a fully ordained monk which is rather uncommon for treasure revealers.
Konchok Chidu is a Guru Padmasambhava sadhana that encompasses the Three Roots: the outer Peaceful Guru Padmasambhava (Guru Tsokye Dorje) as Lama, the inner Wrathful Padmasambhava (Guru Drakpo) as Yidam, and the secret Padmasambhava in the form of Simhamukha (Senge Dongma) as Dakini. This sadhana is a Guru Padmasambhava practice commonly practiced in the Nyingma and Kagyu traditions throughout the Himalayas and Tibet.
Konchok Chidu is also a Guru Yoga practice, and one of the most profound and, highest and most secret ways of accomplishing the mind of Guru Rinpoche. It helps to avert spiritual obstacles and pacifies all negativity on the path to enlightenment.
The sadhana is available for purchase in English and Slovak at the center.
