Divinations
In addition to general divination, you may wish to seek council with a specific question or goal in mind. For example, "should I quit my job?" or "why am I frequently sick in my stomach?". After stating your concern, Rinpoche uses meditation, his mala, dice ( if indicated), and consults special prayer books and Tibetan Astrological Charts. A response is given, and if necessary, remedies are suggested. The individual then can take appropriate actions or remedies. An advantage to in-person divination is that Rinpoche will perform the remedies on the spot.
