Re: Inviting the Eight Vajra Spirits
As an interesting side note. Not connected to this thread directly, but in general. There are practices and prayers that would invite siblings, in the pantheon of the Drga Lha's.
A good example would be.
(rta rgod mched brgyad dgra lha).
(loosely, Deity of the enemies vital life force, the eight siblings, riding untamed wild horses)
Often come in brotherhoods or sisterhoods, a retinue of deities. Protection from enemies (harm to your bla or life force) Often pre buddhist groups come traditionally in groups of seven, nine, thirteen etc. The colours represent the elements, water, air, fire and so on.
Invocation, inviting to pay attention and purification in a nut shell
