Introduction to Red Tara. She can become the main deity of Dharma works. Her vajra hook has many functions in the realms of desire, form, and formless. Having affinity with Red Tara, Dharma rituals will be smooth and successful. Deep affinity with Red Tara requires many mantra recitations and when in union you can soul travel within these 3 realms to perform all kinds of Dharma rituals. Four immeasurables: loving kindness (providing happiness to others), compassion (alleviate suffering of others), joy (to do so with joy), equanimity (forsaking everything about you). Lamdre (31:22). Three meditations: (1) all kinds of true nature: initial, supreme, superior, and ultimate bliss. (2) clarity of light, (3) emptiness.

Annual Amitabha Bardo Ceremony. Debut transmission of the Red Tara practice. Of the 21 Taras, Red Tara is the most important for performing Dharma rituals. In the beginning part of this yoga, one must master: homage, offering, refuge, repentance, immeasurables, bodhicitta, armor. In the main part, visualize in your heart an 8 petaled flower and "Ah" syllable that becomes a red moon disc is the syllable "Dang" the seed of the 21 Taras that become a red upala lotus blossom. At the center of the blossom it a red "Dang" radiates light and the practitioner becomes one with Red Tara.
