In this special month-long series of teachings and guided meditations Gen Menla will help us learn about and use the Four Opponent Powers together with the meditation and mantra recitation practices of Buddha Vajrasattva. The Four Opponent Powers can be used to oppose all our negative karma. Buddha Vajrasattva has a special function to remove all our negative karma if we make and strengthen our connection with him.
