About this talk. In this 47-minute teaching from 1987, a Buddha House teacher guides participants through the ceremonial procedures for the enthronement of Lama Osel. The session begins with the Lamacho prayer through to the Bodhicitta, establishes the merit field visualisation with the lamas and deities, and then moves into the main practice structure: generation of oneself and the deities, blessing and offering sequences, invocation, and concluding mental offerings and long prayer. The teacher provides flexible instructions on reading materials, allowing participants to follow either printed or English versions of the prayers as needed. This is a formal ritual instruction for an initiated group already familiar with foundational Buddhist practice and visualisation techniques.
