H H Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje

When a thought arises, it brings another with it, and then another, in an endless sequence. It is this chain which has deceived us from beginningless time, and if we do not break it, it will continue to deceive us in the future.

~ ~ ~ H H Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje

Kalu Rinpoche

If a hundred people sleep and dream,

each of them will experience a different world in his dream.

Everyone’s dream might be said to be true,

but it would be meaningless to ascertain that only one person’s dream was the true world and all others were fallacies.

There is truth for each perceiver according to the karmic patterns conditioning his perceptions.

Kalu Rinpoche

His Holiness The 12th Gyalwang Drukpa, Jigmet Pema Wangchen

Give yourself time and space to be connected with nature. The external nature will bring you closer to your own nature. If we keep looking outside for something, for happiness, for peace, for love, for luck, for bliss, we will never be able to find them, because they are all within us. If we cannot develop or find these positive qualities within ourselves, then we will always be affected by external situations. To have this inner development, we have to slow down, listen more, talk less, pay more attention to our inner voice, and pay more attention to the present, instead of thinking about the future and regretting the past. For us, most of the time, our mind is everywhere. Therefore we cannot appreciate even our food, our family, our job, our friends; forget about appreciating our own spirituality.

Sogyal Rinpoche

Perhaps the deepest reason why we are afraid of death is because we do not know who we are. We believe in a personal, unique, and separate identity — but if we dare to examine it, we find that this identity depends entirely on an endless collection of things to prop it up: our name, our "biography," our partners, family, home, job, friends, credit cards… It is on their fragile and transient support that we rely for our security. So when they are all taken away, will we have any idea of who we really are?

Without our familiar props, we are faced with just ourselves, a person we do not know, an unnerving stranger with whom we have been living all the time but we never really wanted to meet. Isn't that why we have tried to fill every moment of time with noise and activity, however boring or trivial, to ensure that we are never left in silence with this stranger on our own?

Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

H E Gyang Khang Chotrul Rinpoche

If there is ever any wisdom in my teaching (however little it may be), it is given by the Bodhisattvas and my gurus. According to Maha Parinirvana Sutra, all sentient beings are endowed with Buddha nature. Nevertheless, it is still a long journey before we are totally free from suffering and attain liberation. As a monk, I am just an ordinary human being. The only difference between you and me, however, is my strong resolve in my spiritual path.

~~~ H E Gyang Khang Chotrul Rinpoche

Lama Thubten Yeshe

Your whole life is controlled by karma, you live within the energy field of karma. Your energy interacts with another energy, then another, and another. That’s how your entire life unfolds. Physically, mentally, it’s all karma.

HH Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche

The basic cause of our being stuck in cyclic existence, in samsara, is our excessive attachment to various objects. It’s always one object or another. To become liberated from cyclic existence, it is ultimately necessary to be free of all attach-ments. ~~ HH Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche ,The practice of Mahamudra, Snow Lion publication

Mipham Chokyi Lodro (27 October 1952 – 11 June 2014), also known as Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche,

The common problem is that people think, “I must achieve the results quickly, I cannot wait more than 5 or 6 years. Otherwise, I don’t like it.” But otherwise, after 6 years what do you have in life? You have nothing else. You cannot achieve the results of the Dharma practice within 6 years. You simply cannot. But still you are doing something meaningful. After 6 years, if you have another goal which you could achieve, then forget the Dharma and chose the other one. But the sentient beings’ life has no other goal besides enlightenment. I am not trying to discourage you from being human, but there is no other thing to do in life. You can try to get rich, but then what? Suppose you can be a successful politician, become a president or something like that, but then what? The problem is the same, isn’t it? There is no other goal to achieve. Dharma is the best. That’s why I say that even if you are a slow mover, still, Dharma brings more meaning than anything else.

Kyabgon Gongma Trichen Rinpoche

The buddhas have abandoned every possible fault or obscuration and through great realizations achieved the pure vision. Just as a man who has awakened from sleep no longer experiences his dreams, similarly, beings who are completely awakened from illusion no longer see the impure vision.~ ~ Kyabgon Gongma Trichen Rinpoche

 In this degenerated era, there are some people who consider Guru Rinpoche as their enemy and try to suppress  him,but in actual fact, there are no such things as suppressing and harm on him since he had accomplished the rainbow body of wisdom. Therefore, no harm can be done to Guru Rinpoche. ~~ HH PENOR RINPOCHE

His Holiness Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje

Nothing is intrinsically or ultimately bad. Any situation that arises is only relatively good or bad based on many factors, including—most significantly—how you perceive the situation and how you respond to it.

Ogyen Trinley Dorje, 

Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche

Faith alone never stops problems; understanding knowledge-wisdom always does. Lord Buddha himself said that belief in Buddha was dangerous; that instead of just believing in something, people should use their minds to try to discover their own true nature.

 Lama Zopa Rinpoche

His Holiness Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje

"What we call compassion is the wish or desire to be capable of protecting sentient beings from suffering,” he began. “We could call it a sense of determination, a sense of courage or resolve. That is compassion. It is not merely something intellectual that belongs to the brain or that sphere of our experience. But rather it is a powerful heartfelt feeling or quality, one that must be sincere.              This is how I see it.”

— His Holiness Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje

You don’t need to obsess over the attainment of future realizations. As long as you act in the present with as much understanding as you possibly can, you’ll realize everlasting peace in no time at all.

You keep going. That is the bodhisattva’s way. As long as it benefits even one being you have to, without any sense of discouragement, go on. 16th Karmapa

Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö

The bloom of a handsome youthful body withers with age. Despite your wishes, you’ll experience the pain of disease, And, with a final rasping cough, you’ll pass away. Even now, the time for this draws near. Son, Lodrö, think about it well! Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö

Kyabje Chadral Sangye Dorje

To obtain real peace and happiness in this world one has simply to follow the path of ahimsa - nonviolence - which naturally is common to all the religions of the world. If we do not like to experience any pain or suffering of any kind, how can we expect any other creature - whether big or small - to feel otherwise?

There is no better prayer or worship we can offer to Lord Buddha than being thoughtful, kind, compassionate and abstaining from taking the life of any fellow human being, animal, bird, fish or insect.

HE DILGO KHYENTSE RINPOCHE

"Do not forget the Lama

Pray to him at all times.

Do not forget death

Persist in Dharma.

Do not be carried away by thoughts 

Watch the nature of mind.

Do not forget sentient beings

With compassion dedicate your merit to them." — His Holiness Kyabje Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
