my question is I have tantric empowerment in past, can i practice setrap tantricly ?
Dear Thomas,
This section is actually answered by the Kechara Pastors. Yes if you have received an appropriate tantric empowerment in the past you can practice Setrap the tantric way. As far as my memory serves me His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche has not bestowed the Setrap Sogtae (empowerment/life-entrustment) publicly in Kechara before. It is not necessary to have received this to practice Setrap.
However, since you have received tantric empowerment before, you should approach you own lama first to teach you more about your own Dharma practice and how the Dharma Protector practice fits in to it. It is always advisable that our lama gives us our practices. If appropriate and you want to learn more about Setrap, you can request your lama for teachings.
