Requirements:
(Restricted and open sessions) Those who have received the Initiation of Guru Gomadevi can practice the Long, Medium and Short Thun. In particular, those who have received the Initiation can visualize the Inner Mandala since they were introduced to it during the transmission of Initiation. This means that they have received the cause to mature the transmission in knowledge.

(Restricted and open sessions) Those who have received the root initiation of the Longsal Cycle can perform the practice of Long, Medium and Short Thun. In particular, those who have received the Initiation can visualize the Inner Mandala since they were introduced to it during the transmission of Initiation. This means that they have received the cause to mature the transmission in knowledge.

(Restricted and open sessions) Those who received the Direct Introduction linked to the Jnanadakini (Longsal Thugthig of Jnanadakini) can practice the three Thun and visualize the Inner Mandala since the Direct Introduction is exactly the Introduction to the real state of the Jnanadakini with all the characteristics and symbolic attributes which are included in the Inner Mandala. The Direct Introduction is valid even if received via Web Cast because the Master has assumed responsibility for this type of transmission of the Teaching.

(Open sessions) Those who received in person at the end of a retreat or even via Web Cast the Mantra of the Essence of Guru Gomadevi (Essential nine-syllable mantra of the Guru Wisdom Dakini Gomadevi) can practice only the Short Thun without visualizing the Inner Mandala of which they have not received the transmission, that is not contained in the simple Lung or Trilung with explanations on the method of visualizations, on the melody etc. of the mantra of Essence.
