DRUPCHEN – GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT

 

A Drupchen is an intensive group practice of one sadhana for at least seven days. It is a special time, totally devoted to practice, where body, speech and mind should be fully occupied. The idea is to practice for 24 hours; therefore, there are four practice sessions of the liturgy and a non-interrupted recitation of the mantra done in groups.

Ranyak Patrul Rinpoche explains:

“The meaning of the drupchen sadhana is to pray for all sentient beings, wishing them to be free from all the complications of suffering, which are the unfavourable circumstances in this life and individual problems in daily life. For example, sickness, conflicts in the family, difficulties in order to get what we wish for and difficulties in order to avoid what we do not wish.”
