Troma Nagmo

From Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search




Troma Nagmo, the Black Wrathful Mother, represents the feminine embodiment of wisdom and is the innermost secret aspect of the dakini practice in the Dudjom Tersar lineage. It is the practice of Chöd, or severance, which uses exceptionally expedient wisdom methods to directly sever the root of suffering, dualistic clinging to a self.

“You who aggressively devour dualistic concepts with your sharp, white, bared fangs are ornamented with fearsome accouterments and are completely surrounded by the wisdom fire of the kalpas.” (Pema Lungtok Gyatso, Dudjom Lingpa’s Chöd: An Ambnrosia Ocean of Sublime Explanations, 2014)

Troma is one of the most profound termas (hidden treasures) revealed by Dudjom Lingpa. The Troma Cycle encompasses the full path to enlightenment, from Troma Ngondro through Trekchod and Togal. It is well known that through the Troma Nagmo cycle of practice, thirteen of Dudjom Lingpa’s disciples attained the rainbow body, and it is predicted that many more will continue to do so for three generations to come.

Troma Nagmo represents the feminine embodiment of wisdom and is the most profound aspect of the dakini practice in the Dudjom Tersar as received and propagated by Dudjom Lingpa (1835-1904) and Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche (1904-1987). These two, so nearly contemporary as to make the teachings known as the 'close lineage teachings, have ensured that the practices resonate with those of us living in these dark ages.
