The 14 Root Vows of Vajrayana
Weekend retreats with Ngakma Shardröl Dunyam Wangmo in Europe
The Fourteen Root Vows are the primary practice of Vajrayana Buddhism. They give us relief from the urge to manipulate every situation that arises in our life. Rather we connect with the Mind of the teacher, which is identical to our own realised Mind, and leave it to her or him to direct us and orchestrate our own understanding. The vows enable us to receive whatever teachings there might be. This is true for driving or cooking lessons as well as spiritual teachings. To some people they seem strange or extreme, but really they describe a method by which we learn in everyday life as well as in spiritual practice. It is said that it is impossible to keep the vows unless one has attained enlightenment. Because of this, the practice is one of continually returning to the vows – and of never giving up on keeping them, even when we make mistakes.
