Bhutadamara is a manifestation of Vajrapani, the ‘holder of the vajra’ and an important bodhisattva in Tibetan Buddhism. Bhutadamara protects against obstacles and negative forces on the path to enlightenment. ‘Bhutadamara’ means subduer of demonic forces. Despite his wrathful appearance, he stems from compassion. His activity is aimed at liberating beings from suffering, through a practice of both power and compassion.

In the Sakya tradition, Bhutadamara’s retreat is completed at the beginning of the path, even before preparatory practices (Ngondro) or retreats to purify karmic obstacles (Ley rung).

Streaming is offered to those living far away or unable to come to the centre because of sickness or other valid reasons. The Sunday morning (initiation) is not streamed.
