Danke für die anfängliche .. Danke

Fluent, knowledgeable, and enlightened. He was married to his wife 40 years or so till she died in April last year.

this is it!

Yes, desire, anger and confusion types. This is the approach one would have in life on prima vista. Therefore different types would have a natural attraction toward different type of teachings which Buddha gave. The essence of all three is the same and it is liberating and enlightining

🙏🙏🙏

i maed him, he is a beautifull Person. and nessesery for me he speak german!

"practically the important thing for us all to do is to lower the population in the ghettos and the poor parts of the world. this is the real expression of kindness in the world today." what? :D wow i really wish he had elaborated on that a bit. by itself it makes me raise more than an eyebrow. completely regardless of all other things he says.

It's pretty old. It's still good though.

Cool

A certain Chinese Zen master said to monks: " Seek an understanding of live words. Don't seek understanding of dead words. If you attain an understanding of alive words, then you never forget them. If you only understand dead words you cannot save neither others nor yourself. " Other master said: " There are Sun, moon and stars on a sky. But a blind man does not see Sun, moon and stars. "

Thanks... when you speak of Mahamudra´s bliss it sounds/feels like the the whole body electricity (starting from the solar plexus and working its way out to the limbs and head) and connection to the whole one experiences during trance, am I understanding this correctly?

well this question has come up for 30 years. Its interesting. The answer that best satisfies me is that Karmpa says he is. Also Sharmar Rinpoche. And a host of others highly credible Lamas. And personally I have learned a great deal from Ole. The real question is whether he is a teacher for a particular individual. Thats a personal choice best based on some personal experience. theres a bunch of documents out there - just google Ole Nydahl documents

What Ole says about Western students (20:10) is very true

👍👍🖖

😉👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏

What is the Lama saying at 5.31, something for "for confusion types"

What is he saying at 10.34? How is it spelled?

Karmapa chenno

@coxhoe789 well maybe his english isn't perfect. even mine isn't. but i think what ole says is really good to understand. it seems as if your english is pretty good - so - from that higher level it should be possible for you to understand it too - if it's for me from a much lower one... (i'm sure you wanted to say "... doesn't make any sense.")

Is mahamudra similar to shikantaza in Japan?

There are different schools influenced by different cultures. People are mentally disturbed by concepts . For this reason taught many methods and there are many teachers . For some the freedom of Tibetan Buddhism doesn't work . The rigidity of Japanese style may be more beneficial . The direct experience of the Sakya, Nyigma and Kagyu school may not work . The Intellectual Gelugpa path may work. Who ever is mentally disturbed by Buddhist teachings or teachers has an opportunity to work with their mental attachments .

“Until we have one western student who can achieve rainbow body, or at the least pass away consciously in samadhi exhibiting all the signs of accomplishment, Buddhism will superficially proliferate but not take deep root in the West” - A well known Tibetan Rinpoche 😂

Umachenpo?

Drinking from a stream from which a bad man has drunk?

Depend on the teachings not on the teacher. Depend on the meaning, not on the words. Depend on the depth, not on the surface. Depend on wisdom , not on concepts.

Zwei Punkt Methode Quantenheiun

he is saying non-dual tantras

mahamudra with attachment? joy is a good feeling, but where is selflessness ??

Is this man a fully enlightened being? A Buddha?

Und nachher kann er nicht mehr laufen, nach seinem halben Lotos Sitz

its irritating Ole don't wear a Robe when he is a lama. Irritating to see him sitting there with a brand T-shirt. I think its disrespectful to Buddha

I am not a fundamentalist practitioner, neither extremist or only one view dharma follower. I practice many schools and traditions although I am a simple apprentice I think I have been guided by solid teachings who follows foundations given by deep, wise and real teachers. So listening to him makes me feel frustrated and upset that he cheat people. Ole is not a true Lama who never did a Three-year retreat; his "teachings" only confuse the people. Saying that Nyingma is the people with anger tendency who practice Dzogchen and Mahamudra the "touching each other people" Karma Kagyu people is just bias, stupid, distorted, fake and foul teachings full of prejudice. He distorts completely the true teachings. He is famous for having sexual intercourse with female students but only for sex and lust and not for a real tantric reason. He wants to involve people into his sect, which is an anti-communist, and anti-Muslim sect and which he delivers around the world with hatred discourses. He has criticized His Holiness Dalai Lama many times. Besides saying that the westerns are the finest students are RACIST, PREJUDICE AND FASCIST statements. The majority of his followers are westerners and people of high class. His retreats are noisy. FAKE TEACHER.

he should first learn to speak english and then maybe one could then understand what he is trying to say,the word,s are english but the sentence doe,s not make sence
