Gen-la started by telling us about Buddha Shakyamuni’s life story to deepen our understanding and faith. He helped us to understand and connect to the logic that Buddha is still appearing in our world, that Buddhas cannot help but to continue to appear, and therefore we can view our own Spiritual Guide correctly and unmistakenly as a living emanation of Buddha.

Gen-la guided us very smoothly and powerfully through the stages of the empowerment, empowering us to overcome our delusions, our self-cherishing and eventually our ordinary appearance.
