Chakung Jigme Wandrak Rinpoche returns to Pema Osel Ling in January to offer insights and clarity into the 14 Root Downfalls of Vajrayana, essential dharma for strengthening a practitioner's commitment to following the Buddhist path.

“The 14 Root Downfalls” of Vajrayana are serious vows taken to avoid the deterioration of samaya (sacred commitment) and obstructions to enlightenment.

Breaking these vows creates significant obstacles to advancing on the path, and harms one’s connection to the teacher, lineage and practice.

Maintaining these vows is considered essential for the Vajrayana practitioner to advance on the path, as each vow reflects a commitment to ethical discipline, compassion, wisdom and the integrity of the spiritual journey.
