Chöd (Tibetan: གཅོད, Wylie: gcod lit. 'to sever'), is a spiritual practice found primarily in the Nyingma and Kagyu schools of Tibetan Buddhism (where it is classed as Anuttarayoga Tantra).
Also known as "Cutting Through the Ego,", the practices are based on the Prajñāpāramitā or "Perfection of Wisdom" sutras, which expound the "emptiness" concept of Buddhist philosophy.
According to Mahayana Buddhists, emptiness is the ultimate wisdom of understanding that all things lack inherent existence. Chöd combines prajñāpāramitā philosophy with specific meditation methods and tantric ritual. The chöd practitioner seeks to tap the power of fear through activities such as rituals set in graveyards, and visualisation of offering their bodies in a tantric feast in order to put their understanding of emptiness to the ultimate test.
Interview is with, author and international teacher, founder and spiritual director of Tara Mandala. In 2009, Lama Tsultrim was selected by an esteemed committee of Buddhist scholars and practitioners to receive the International Outstanding Women in Buddhism Award given in Bangkok, Thailand.

I felt so different after this meditation, I felt I had released something, and the ally was recognizable straight away, like I had known the ally from way back, feel refreshed, thank you, :)
I'm glad you feel better :) Thank you for sharing your experience.
Demons are fallen angels masquerading as light beings. They scratch the wars that itch and lull you into spiritual passivity, giving the illusion of peace when all they are doing is putting you into bondage. Beloveds, please run from this false-light trap and place your trust in Jesus. He is Lord of the universe and the only one who can deliver you. May God bless each and every one of you. Btw, I’m speaking as a former new-ager, so I have much empathy zero judgement.💛🌸
This was an extremely emotional, powerful, and healing meditation. I sobbed when I realized what kind of demon I was giving power to. What it looked like and how heavy it was within me. Now I feel whole, powerful, complete, light and peaceful. My demon was my inability to love myself and constantly seeking validation from my romantic partners. Deep feelings of loneliness. Unworthiness. Thank you so much for this.

Je suis thérapeute jungienne dans le Sud de la France et je pratique essentiellement le Voice Dialogue. J'ai récemment découvert le CHÖD, ou FYD. Merci à Tsultrim Allionne d'avoir écrit ce livre ( très difficile à trouver) . Quand on est familière des formes personnifiées de l'Inconscient, cette approche est cohérente et se marie parfaitement avec le Voice Dialogue. Elle est étonnamment puissante. Certaines Voix en nous ressemblent à l'Hydre de Lerne . Pour la majorité d'entre elles , cependant , une seule séance peut transmuter, alchimiser une Voix, une facette en nous qui entravait notre Liberté jusque là. Merci Tsultrim pour ce cadeau que tu fais au Monde .
+SINDILAIRE ALENA Merci pour votre aimable commentaire 😀
Thank you! This is a powerful practice and so beautifully guided by Lama Tsultrim
Thank you so much for sharing this incredible technique! I’d read your book on this subject several years ago and was so happy to see your guided presentation here. This technique is an incredible tool and I use it a great deal in my healing journey. Gratitude and Blessings to you!
Wow, I just tried this. It is so powerful and it does not pull it's punches. Deeply moving and very therapeutic.
I practiced today twice and I did it with a possible bone joint problem and my ally was so powerful and scary! Also I did with a fear of contracting COVID and my ally was so beautiful, and she made me realize how proud she was of me and how I've been taking care all of these years and that she will continue to protect me. Because I'm slowly recovering my life back and I'm happy to be here and alive.
Lovely! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you very much for making this available. I connected with ally- an enormous red-orange elephant form that clears my path of all UNSKILLFUL thoughts, feeling, behaviors, actions, and things in its path. I dedicated positive energy to all sentient beings.🙏
Thank you very much for this, I could feel it was immediately beneficial. I shall take Lama Tsultrim's advice and do this for the next month of my daily practice.
Wonderful!
Thank you!! It is so Very helpful to have this guided meditation here . Very happy with this and may it help as many as possible!
Beauty Full, Elegant Process. thank you.
Daemon in greek and roman world many of them they were considered "good" too.
But judeochristianism perverted it, it's fascinating how similar the Dharma and the Old-Pagan Greek religion they are.
The idea of personifying as deity what I had always associated as a behavior is mind altering and spiritually transformative. I'm not sure how it may affect my life but I sense there might be something to it and I'm willing to investigate . . . Thank you for this. . .
great resource for meditation - thank you for sharing this
You're most welcome!
Thank you, Danke, Merci

What I want is...
What I really need is...
If I get what I really need, I will feel...
Ty i understand,also agree, though my views are often viewed as blasphemous. Familiar with Machik, ty for condensing it into a workable
I asked my ally her name and she said lashone which I thought was weird because it’s so random and so exact at the same time... so I googled the meaning of the name and the definition I got was exactly the gift the ally gave me🤔 there’s something to this.... to repeat other posts it was truly familiar 🧐 very interesting!
How will you help me?
How will you protect me?
How can I access you?
What pledge do you make to me?
Wow! ultimate shadow work :)
Without demon ally visualization can one do just flushing the cells of the body with luminosity...thats what I did naturally. I am studying four nutriments teaching of Buddha to be free of clinging.
Gekyume is upon us.
This kind of meditation and working with your mind is very interessting and I practiced it sometimes (like Tsültrim says: One demon a day keeps the doctor away). But what I'm wondring about is what should i do with all the allies that came after feeding my demon/s - I have now a complete zoo. Does anybbody has experience how you can get advantage from your allies?
surely you could try asking them...
Listen to this wonderful expose of how our Wise Master Jesus Christ dealt with a wonderful Gerasenic man's inner demons as he "Meditated" in frightening tombs day and night with his demons.
Mark 5
They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes. 2 When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to meet him. 3 This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him anymore, not even with a chain. 4 For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong enough to subdue him. 5 Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.
6 When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him. 7 He shouted at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God’s name don’t torture me!” 8 For Jesus had said to him, “Come out of this man, you impure spirit!”
9 Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?”
“My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.” 10 And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.
11 A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside. 12 The demons begged Jesus, “Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them.” 13 He gave them permission, and the impure spirits came out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
18 As Jesus was getting back into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him. 19 Jesus did not let him, but said, “Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.” 20 So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And all the people were amazed.
Let us all apply this wonderful teaching of Wise Master Jesus to our lives and see to it that all of our demons are treated as the swine that they truly are and are cast into a place where they can die.

I find similarities in the Chöd philosophy and working the Qliphoth. Feed your demons and your weakness becomes strength.
R+TK TRAV yes thanks for your comment, this meditation is one of my faves :)
+reprogramming mind the meditation is very refreshing and I happened upon some blockages that I wasn't aware of right away
+ TK TRAV yes for me too and others as well. You may experience that again by listenign to it at another time. Thanks for your comment

What do you want?
What do you really need?
How will you feel if you get what you need?
Is it necessary to do the practice for all beings as you said in the meditation "for the good of all beings"?
How can you tell the difference between different types of tension in the body? I can just about work out if there is tension, but I wouldn't have a clue as to its cause.
Ask your body for the remedy rather than needing to know the cause. Energy responds to questions and awareness
What does the ally refer to please? I forget.
There are so many people who got problems with evil spirits through these things and by being told to accept these "entities" etc. Please, research before you accept these things and not only listen to these types of explanations. Take care and be careful with the spirit round. It can seem light at first but can turn out to actually be dark. The spirit round is deceptive.
hellom do we need to do any prepatory/concluding shaking/exercise/grounding/invocation for this meditasion? cheers
cool effective
is it possible to change the weather with this practice? yesterday there was a big storm and I am always terrified of the wind, it was up to 100 km/h and since I live under the roof I was so afraid that the roof will blow off. I know it sounds silly but I have some sort of ancraophobia. I feeded the demon of this phobia and felt as calm as him afterwards. It was so strange, because I finished at about 11pm and the wind had calmed down and stayed calm since then, while weather warning was until 6am...it's a really big coincidence and I am really confused and I don't know if the fear is gone.
If you can, use it for good!
Whatever this experience was, it was very powerful, so I will be careful. I think it's not possible to do something bad with this amazing practice. thank you so much!
se qualche anima buona che conosce bene l inglese/italiano potesse tradurlo in italiano e mettere dei sottotitoli sarebbe fantastico ... PLese translate sub in italiano please!
It's unfortunate when a Buddhist teacher claims the method is Buddhist when they are simply extracting it from other holistic teachers and renaming it theirs. This method is an exact replica of NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) methods. NLP teachers have been utilizing these EXACT step-by-step instructions since the 1970s.
Take a look at Core Transformation work by Connirea Andreas or Trauma Release Method by Jenifer Shapiro.
Or take a look at the pre-NLP parts therapies by Fritz Perls and all of the work by Virginia Satir.
This method is a re-branding and it is NOT a buddhist method by any means. If you look at it closely it does the exact opposite of buddhist methods - it causes you to become attached to feelings and release. This is not buddhist, it IS new age healing which I totally respect, it just isn’t something this buddhist came up with and it’s not buddhist. A buddhist / Tibetan method would be Tonglen.
But Buddhism has been around for thousands of years and Buddhism is an outgrowth of Hinduism which has been around even much longer... They and Hinduism have been using visualisations and everything from sound to movement and non movement and everything else in between to change and heighten our consciousness , change our bodies, our inner landscape, our lives... change our minds... even the grandfather of modern psychology Carl Jung used Buddhism for his works ... not vice versa .
I guess it's the NLP-ists copying Buddhists. Chod practices dates the 1300-ish....
As a healer, if you would approach things with more compassion, instead of separation, everything would make more sense ☺️
It should never be a this vs that mentality. Everyone is working on resolving their own inner turmoil - there are thousands of methods to get to the same results & solve things. Someone prefers hypnosis, someone does sound healing, someone chanting, someone prays, someone does shamanic dancing, someone goes to therapy, someone does CBT, someone plant medicine. Nobody invented anything before or after - people find suitable mediums for them & that’s it. Most of the new age thoughts are actually Hindu/Buddhist teachings modernized. We are coming together, it’s beautiful 🥰🤩🙏
Well what about infinity dream analysis...Sigmund frued...the fetish...fetishism...through which this is also visible to...
Is it ok to feed your demons negativity?
It will not work if you feed them negativity. This will make things worse because you are emobodying negativity when you turn yourself into nectar and you are tuning yourself to feel and be more of that.
While I get where you're coming from, you're doing it wrong. We are supposed to be afraid of you in order for your lesson to work.
because?
you lost me very early in your speech.
Rewind ?
