Oracle of Vajrapani
()
About this ebook
Hi I'm Christopher Lee. In August 2012 in front of my at-home Tibetan Buddhist Altar I saw the Buddhist Deity Vajrapani for a few seconds; saw its third eye on its Forehead, a 5 skull glowing white Crown, heard a voice sounding "Ah", saw (white) Om (red) Ah (blue) Hum symbols inside its translucent shining blue body and behind it surrounded by flames and bands of colors and white light, gesturing Buddhist Hand mudras, and dancing. Uncharacteristically in the historic sense, Vajrapani was wearing an Oracle Mirror on its Chest similar to the Mirror worn by the Nechung, the State Oracle of Tibet and advisor to His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Seeing Vajrapani gave me guidance via presentment of color, healing, light, mudras, sound, symbols, dance, wearing a Mirror on its Chest, and a healing. I then chose Vajrapani as my Yidam- my tutelary spirit guide and inspired me to become an Oracle. I pursue Oracle practice with Tibetan Buddhist ritual ceremony and Vajrayana tantric practices. I have documented the entire phenomena in the Book, "Oracle of Vajrapani". I then provide commentary and Analysis of the history of Vajrapani, and why and how such apparitions happen. I then discuss The Oracles in the Tibetan Bon and Buddhist religions, and the protocols of an Oracle practice in the Tibetan Bon / Buddhist traditions. Enjoy, Chris Lee.

Meanwhile, you may find yourself having sex with more than one person, or you may find yourself in a Rapture at a Tent Revival, or alone in meditation isolated at a secluded Retreat; or as a lay Exorcist confronting the Demonic while exorcising a Client, or as an Oracle possessed by a ‘Spirit’, or drinking Ayahuasca with a Shaman, or as a Vampire drinking Blood; whatever you must do to manifest your chosen destiny, fight for your Rights with all of your might, and with all of your wit. I am self-sovereign, so it’s important to me to codify into laws “The Right to be Strange” without harm to others, a Right to the ‘Fringes’ or ‘Outer Limits’ of what being alive on Earth as a Human can be, that at some point in all of our lives we must all ‘Step outside the Box’ and dare “The Road less travelled”.By necessity, and because I choose to, I fight for freedom from control, manipulation, coercion, or harassment from governments, private organizations, or anyone. I am the sovereign King of my Kingdom of one, Me. My allegiance is to me, and any Alliances or Allegiances to any Organizations, Collectives, Communes, Syndicates, or people with which or whom I choose to ally or align, including none, is solely my choice, and absolutely definitely not any government’s choice or decision. I claim Autonomous Sovereignty of my Life with Ownership of my Body and Name, and claim my inherent right to my liberty of freedom of choice and self-determination; it is my choice to choose my work, friends, lifestyle, partners, politics, beliefs, destiny, and fate.I am an International Citizen, at peace with everyone. I claim radical self-sovereignty and radical self-responsibility; and I say that all of us must claim our self-sovereignty and self-responsibility as fully independent and Autonomous Self-Sovereign Entities, with the liberty of freedom of choice of self-determination. All of us must claim our self-sovereignty as fully independent and autonomous self-sovereign Entities, with the freedom of choice of self-determination.Currently the U.S.A. Constitution is superseded by the Patriot Act, The National Security Act, other 'Acts' of Congress and of the Executive Branch, including several Presidential Directives by several Presidents over time. Fight for the restoration of all Constitutional Rights, Human Rights, Civil Rights, and Statutory freedoms and liberties, and fight to repeal all prior and subsequent negations and abrogations of our Rights.The revolution will not be televised. Rise, rebel, resist. El pueblo unido jamas sera vencido (the people united will never be defeated). Fight for access to information, fight for Human Rights, fight for Civil Rights, fight for Statutory Rights.. Do not be cowarded by 'them'. “We can beat them forever and ever. We can be Heroes”- David Bowie.COPYRIGHT ©2019, 2020 by Christopher Robin Lee.(Declaration of Autonomous Sovereignty is Public Domain.)(Notice__WARNING: Institutions, groups, or individuals accessing my web pages on this site or any of its associated sites do not have license to use any content in any form without written and properly executed permission of the author.

May all who contributed to the karma creating the Oracle of Vajrapani and all Beings realize enlightenment.
FOREWARD: I had intended on writing a Book about all of my para-normal experiences and E.T. encounters, including Vajrapani, but ultimately I chose to limit the scope of this Book to be about my encounter with Vajrapani, so in a future book I shall discuss my para-normal experiences and E.T. encounters, along with my religious and spiritual influences while as a child and as an Adult, because a synergism occurred between how and what spirituality and religious persuasions I’ve had and have and what I’ve experienced when I ventured In to the Spirit World.
IN TO THE SPIRIT WORLD
In December 2008 I learned of the existence of a Tibetan Buddhist Temple in Chinatown in the old-town section of Portland, Oregon by seeing a photograph on the front cover of an edition of The Asian Reporter Newspaper, a photo of three members of this Temple who were wearing traditional Tibetan Buddhist Robes. When I saw that photograph I thought That’s the real thing. I must find this Temple
. I found the Temple and joined. I loved how beautiful the inside of the Temple was, and I agreed with teachings. After a year of membership and I took refuge and Vows and receiving Vase Initiation
from its Founder. But there was language and cultural barriers. Even though it was a Tibetan Buddhist Temple this Temple was of, by, and for the Chinese community; even its Founder was from China, but had studied Tibetan Buddhism in Tibet. The members of the Temple were not highly proficient speaking english, most Temple teachings were in the mandarin language, and none of the members had the time to translate the teachings in to english because they had their own lives to attend to. But I was inspired by being there and wished to compensate for teachings not translated from mandarin to english so I began purchasing Tibetan Buddhist objects which I felt was a way for me to improve practicing Buddhism. Then the Temple moved to a relatively distant City, so I discontinued attendance. As time elapsed I continued to purchase items found in a Tibetan Buddhist Temple; I wanted one of everything that could be found in a Tibetan Buddhist Temple. Eventually after three years I had a good Altar.
VAJRAPANI ENCOUNTER
Regarding the Buddhist Deity I witnessed in August, 2012, as best I can recall the date was around August 16th.
(Months before seeing Vajrapani, I had chosen Vajrapani as my ‘Yidam’, my tutelary spiritual Guide. Then I asked one of my dharma teachers if he approved of my doing a Vajrapani Practice; his advice to me was that if I am respectful, reverential, and devoted in my Vajrapani Practice, that it should prove fruitful, and indeed it already has, and continues to be fruitful.)
So, one day I was lying in Bed recovering from a relatively mild illness; my Altar was about two meters to the left of my Bed where I lay. It was then that I saw the image of a Buddhist Deity appear in front of my Altar. Afterwards I wrote of what I witnessed.
Right before I saw it I was lying in Bed resting, but awake with my eyes open, my head propped up on a pillow, at that time I was slowly recovering from a minor sickness, so I was being and feeling patient and brave about being sick, and I was generally in a good mood. Immediately prior to its appearance I had some minor and now forgotten thought that was very mildly upsetting to me at that moment, so I was in a mild state with some mild, mixed emotions when suddenly it appeared.
There were a lot of details to notice in the short time that it was visible for what at first seemed to be only about the two to three seconds, but in retrospect, I say 5-7 seconds; during some instances I ‘tunneled’ my attention to see certain details, while at other instances I was trying to see as many details as fast as
