Vedic religion (Hinduism/Sanatana dharma)was in India and south east Asia for centuries prior to Buddhism. Buddhism originated from Hinduism & gained popularity in the northern parts of India & Tibet etc.

Excellent pronunciation. Thank you.

Very important sutra, very best to teach on, thank you very much. The world will thank you.

Nice talk Dan, thank you! I appreciate the pointers and really enjoyed the followup discussion about ethical conduct in dreams.

Happiness is not something readymade it comes from your own actions. Good or bad no problem. If the problem can be solved why worry. If the problem cannot be solved why worry. sometimes we don't know buddhism call karma. Karma means action. 💪

Excellent talk and followup discussion. I found this very helpful. Thank you Rinpoche!

Thank you for giving this Dharma talk, Lama. It was helpful. I especially enjoyed the Q&A about Maya and making mistakes.

I particularly enjoyed the questions and answers portion of this talk!

Thank you Lama Jinpa for creating, maintaining, and discussing sacred space where we can safely train to see things as they are and to learn to benefit ourselves and others.

Is it all the same mantra that he rolling thk

vajrayogini to too difficult to please even with vipashyana realizing coarse imputation plus upholding the traditional instructions on what she looks for in potential students and the specific gestures that must be instinctively performed on cue when she looks at you. so, look elsewhere for progress, such as her emissaries for example to the confirmed living emanation of aryadeva (nagarjunas heart disciple), garchen rinpoche. he at least will bother to take the time with you to pierce you with his hook and take you through a tour of the hells, which is what you need to deepen actual renunciation using new worldly data, rather than supplicating to vajrayogini in endless ways. the best any of us can do is use the knowledges and physical bodily changes gained during vipashyana to be pierced and killed repeatedly by her if youre fortunate enough to have authentic vipashyana. at that time thus becoming capable of realizing the untarnished pure nature of your hell realm being body which is pure but otherwise merely imputing an experience of staggering pain as one watches ones past karma fruition in them. once that process begins, either shortly after or before she will bother showing up but be only visible to mental direct perception since you are not an arya meaning not even legit highly advanced practitioners beyond the mindonly path of seeing cannot ever see her sambhogakaya visual appearance etc. but you will have mental direct perception of her space her adornments her movements around you a near and far distances, there will typically be several versions of her or her female disciples performing the tasks, and she will control your body to position it for appropriate skewering as needed. later when cakrasamvara arrives at the end of the ceremony he is much taller than they or you are so you will actually be picked up off the floor and you will get to enjoy his special form of punishment/blessing. absent that vipashyana such trauma would be just trauma not a blessing full of data and instruction so you will merely be a brief spectator hooked and toured through a couple layers of hell without becoming a participant and without meeting vajrayogini, but you will greatly enhance your renunciation by seeing the perpetual samsara machine in person. also once the entire vipashyana induced ceremony ends she will take possession of your body and perform some final specific bodily movements which will restore the trauma experienced and bring you back to a functional state.

There's termas in Sacramento and no one cares except the nagas and dakinis

Thank you for this talk, Lama. I was particularly pleased to hear your Zen teacher's description of enlightenment - when you treat all beings as your children. And I also enjoyed your answer to Connor's question about sutra vs. tantra.

Thanks for an interesting discussion Dan.

I have listened to "Emptiness and the Mind Perceiving It" and gained tremendous amounts of understanding and insight. Dr. Garfield's ability to sum up his comprehensive knowledge and ability to co-relate information into concise and logical interpretation and explanations reveals deep connotations and viewpoints, which he is able to unite rather than show their potential divisions. The simple indication that Yogachara is investigating from a phenomenological point of view rather than a metaphysical one as in Mādhyamaka illuminates and resolves a long-standing false conflict between the two. I am not a native English speaker but have no problem to understand every word - but I do have a problem with Tibetan or Sanskrit words said in American English, when not pronounced clearly. I would very much like to know which book and text the first one was, as it is nowhere mentioned clearly. The second text is clear as one of the nuns asked specifically and he explained and showed the book. Comments on KZfaq are switched off, so one can't ask and the description of the videos does not state which texts.

Thank you for the excellent talk on the heart sutra. I especially enjoyed the Q&A.

Dharma poetry! Dirk is in his element!

Thank you Jac. This was a great talk and followup discussion.

Thank you for sharing the video. When it comes to letting go of fixations, Lama suggested a common theme where "we want our cake and eat it too. So, we want to go the full length of suffering. We want to get every little bit of suffering out of our experience before we go 'that was a drag, I should have done that sooner.' It's really weird how most of the time we want to take it to the bitter end before we let it go." I got a chuckle and a sigh out of that. I wish I couldn't relate to that observation so well. :)
