Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had heard advice from a good lama on how to be confident in having received an initiation empowerment. Are there factors that make it questionable whether the transmission has been received or factors that give confidence in whether you have?
Recently I received a series of empowerments and I confused my visualization of one of the deities during the ceremony. Does this interfere with the reception of the form empowerment? Or is it enough to pray to the lama and open to the blessings, etc?
Thank you,
M
