Before we can attain this direct perception of Guru Padmasambhava, we must attain the path of seeing, the first bhumi. To attain that first bhumi, we must purify our minds and certain obscurations through our practice of the Seven Line Prayer and recitation of the Vajra Guru Mantra.
The sign of receiving Guru Padmasambhava’s blessing is that, without any known cause or reason, we may feel calm and peaceful, and have no disturbing thoughts or negative emotions.
Some of you may dream of Guru Padmasambhava giving you blessings, teachings or certain instructions. All these are very possible as they have been experienced by the masters of the past.
