The Non-dual Nature of Love in the Tantric Practice of Vajra-Romance

Mé-tsal Wangmo and Ja’gyür Dorje visited Norway from 9–13 March 2023, giving a lecture on “Hidden Yoginis: Teachings and Practices from a Tradition of Enlightened Women” as well as refuge teachings and vows. During their program, they presented the non-monastic, yogic tradition of Tibetan Buddhist practice, in which realization can be found in “the workplace or the grocery store, rather than in a monastery.”

In this interview, they discuss the non-dual nature of romantic love or tsewa (བརྩེ་བ་) in the context of the Vajrayana practice of vajra-romance.
