Access selected teachings relevant to visualization meditation from The Gelek Rimpoche Archive for free
For an example from Gelek Rimpoche of a visualization meditation teaching, here is a link to a White Tara Introduction teaching from The Gelek Rimpoche Archive held in Northern, Michigan in 2011. You should also note the Archive contains many other teachings Gelek Rimpoche gave over the years but we think this is a good one to start with.
