About this talk. Venerable Wendy Finster teaches a 30-minute Dorje Sempa (Vajrasattva) tsog or feast-offering practice. The session focuses on the recitation and understanding of three key petitions within this tantric ritual: purifying attachment and clinging to sense pleasures; generating genuine renunciation; and cultivating bodhicitta, the aspiration to achieve enlightenment for all beings. Throughout, practitioners make offerings to Vajrasattva visualised as a miraculous rainbow cloud within the dharmakaya, requesting blessings to transform ordinary perception and emotional patterns into wisdom and compassion. Best suited for practitioners who have already received Vajrasattva initiation.
