kohalikuga

Kohalikuga is a term used in the“Yeshe Nyingpo” tantra, a Buddhist text that originates from the Buddhist tradition of Tibet. In this context, Kohalikuga refers to a specific aspect or state of being, which is difficult to translate into English. It is often described as a sense of strategic positioning or being at the right moment, analogous to a chess player making a move in a game of chess.

A more direct interpretation of Kohalikuga could be “the totality of circumstances” which is in accordance with the time, space and condition. This concept is crucial in the ritual practices described in the “Yeshe Nyingpo” tantra, where it is mentioned that for a particular deity to be invoked, the circumstances must be exactly correct, i.e. the time, location and the skillful practitioner must all align to bring about a successful ritual.

In the context of Tantric Buddhism, Kohalikuga is part of a broader understanding of how situations unfold in the world. It involves understanding the complex web of factors that come together to create a particular situation. A deep understanding and application of Kohalikuga is believed to allow the practitioner to navigate complex situations effectively and make informed decisions.
