Among many different traditions of Cho practices, our practitioners follow the practice of Troma Nakmo, according to Dudjom Tersar lineage. Troma Nakmo (The Black Wrathful Mother) is a feminine embodiment of wisdom. Troma Nakmo is the innermost secret aspect of the Dakini practice in the Dudjom Tersar lineage. The Cho practice of Troma Nakmo provides us with an extremely powerful means to cut through the dualistic clinging of mind, the root of suffering thus revealing our inherent wisdom nature.

The Origins of the Terma: The Troma Nakmo based practice of Cho removes obstacles, both for our short-term happiness and those hindering our ultimate enlightenment. It carries extraordinary healing power and through its practice we can accumulate merit and wisdom in a vast and rapid way.
