Riwo Sangchö
Dudjom Rinpoche used to say that Riwo Sangchö is one of the most powerful practices for benefiting both the living and the deceased because, in this practice, we make offerings to everyone with whom we have a karmic connection, alive or dead. By making offerings—both real and imagined—we satisfy the needs of all beings and thereby make good the damage caused over many lifetimes to ourselves and others, thereby removing obstacles to our health and life, healing our connections with others and setting them onto the path to enlightenment. Through this practice we also create auspicious circumstances for our spiritual progress.

Riwo Sangchö Mikpas
Mikpa means ‘how we direct our mind’ during the practice. It refers not only to what we need to visualize but also all the mental processes that go with the practice. When we feel the blessings of the buddhas and the practice, then we can direct its power towards all kinds of activities for the benefit of beings.
