This Amitayus Practice for the accomplishment of the deathless siddhi of the Buddha of Infinite life was written by Tenzin Padma Gyaltsen (1770-1820) the thrid Drikung
Chetsang Rinpoche in the monastery of Drikung. This is the special instruction of the present H.H. Chetsang Rinpoche Konchog Tenzin Kunzang Thrinle Lhundrub, that this

Amitayus Sadhana be translated into English and other European languages so that people in the West can practice it. Therefore following the instructions, this text has been
translated under the guidance of Ven. Drupon Rinpoche Lama Sonam Jorphel, by Ngawang Tseing at Drikung Ngaden Choling Medelon, West Germany and completed on June
28, 1983. This text was reformatted and edited by Rachel Dodds in Almora, India under the guidance of Drupon Champa Rigzin Rinpoche in January 2008. May it be of benefit!
