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.

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

HH PENOR 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

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.

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.

HH 16th KARMAPA Rangjung Rigpe Dorje

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

Heart drops of dharmakaya

Then, thinking that you must stop desire for samsara,

ask what is the purpose of so much attachment? You

need to ask why you have this desire. Imagine that you

are naked and born in hell, screaming and suffering as if you are actually there. Then imagine that you are born

in the realm of the hungry ghosts (pretas) with endless

hunger and want. Imagine you are born in the animal

realm, doing as animals do. Then think that you are born

as a human with servants—imagine that life; then as a

titan (asura) fighting with another—what is the purpose

of that? Finally imagine that you are born as a god (deva)

and spending life in leisure without thinking of the next

life—what is the purpose of this? Imagine that you are

circulating from one realm to the next. Do whatever

comes to your mind—in vision or imagination.

Then imagine what it is like to be a yidam (tutelary

deity); or that you are in Shambhala and are teaching the

bodhisattvas; or in the tantric realms with the siddhas as

disciples; or in Sukhavati or Olmo Lungring teaching Dzog-

pachenpo. Pretend that you are actually doing this. Finally

dissolve all visions into the natural state. What is left?

Then dissolve even your thought itself into the natural

state so there is nothing left. Then you will realise that

everything is made by your thought—everything comes

from there. You have to realise how things are created.

You must practice this seriously for at best three months,

or at least one month.

Namkha

NAMKHÁ is a special item made of wooden sticks and colored threads, to harmonize personal energy of individual, strengthen protection and attract good luck.

Namkha were used in rituals of the ancient shamanic tradition Bon - pre-Buddhist religion of Tibet. Similar items with some magical properties exist in various cultures all around the world, but in most places the deep knowledge of their practical application is lost, and such items are made just as a kind of traditional amulets, ritual decoration or ethnic souvenirs for tourists.

INVOCATION FROM MY HEART ~ YESHI DORJE

PRIME CROSS ~ 卍OGYEN DRODUL YESHI DORJEE 卍

Move inwards. One day you will come to this emptiness, the hub of the wheel. The hub is empty but it holds the whole wheel in it; the hub is empty but without the hub the wheel will disappear, it will fall into pieces. You have known only the wheel – that is your personality up to now, your nama-rupa, your name and form. Your wheel you have known; the deeper you move within you, you will come one day to the hub: that is anatta, no-self, emptiness. But remember again it is not negative, it is not emptiness in the sense of being empty of something. It is emptiness itself. It is the most positive thing in existence. It is existence itself. Hindus have called it sat-chit-anand: sat – it is; chit – it is aware; anand – it is bliss. Remember, it is not blissful; otherwise it would not be empty. It is bliss, not blissful. You will not be filled with bliss, you will suddenly find you are bliss.Emptiness

BUDDHA DHARMA AND GOD ~ TASHI DONDEN

Namo  Arya Avalokiteswaraya

In this note  as per my Knowledge of Buddha Dharma I want to clarify misunderstanding  about Buddha Dhama  from Tirtikas Perspective

Misunderstanding  Buddha Dharma doesn’t belive in God

Most common thing  Tirtikas say about Buddha dharma is that Buddhists don’t believe in god and  they are  Nastikas  this is a big misconception.  As I studied Buddha Dharma  says there is God . The Buddha Dharma Classifies the  samsara into six realms they are God, Titans Asuras,  Human,  Animal, Hungry ghost and Hell beings.

When we use the Term God  or some supreme being deity  we need to  understand from tirtikas perspective what they mean by God.

He is omniscient,  Omnipresent, Omnipotent.

We Buddhists  know that presence of  Tatathagata is not limited to particular space so he is omnipresent

We Buddhists know that  Tathagata is know er of  three times omniscient.

WHEN WE COME TO THIRD POINT   OMNIPOTENT . We know that there is omnipotent energy in the universe. But  presence of a OMNIPOTENT being we don’t agree. If there was a omnipotent God  world need  not suffer   need  to go through all the suffering .  We  approach scientifically  law of cause and effect. But Tirtiakas may say that he is Omnipotent but due to the karma  sentient beings have to go through all the suffering and finally attain liberation or salvation.

But we Buddhists don’t  agree if there is DEFINITION OF OMNIPOTENT BEING MEANS ALL POWERFUL SO HE MUST HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE KARMA. So if particular Omnipotent deity as no power to change karma  we Buddhists don’t consider that particular God Or Deity to be omnipotent..

THE FOUNDATION OF EMPTINESS ~ YESHI DORJE (SIMHA)

I prostrate to Gautama,

Who, out of compassion,

Taught the sacred Dharma

That leads to the relinquishing of all views.

 ~ Mahasiddha Nagarjuna

http://www.rigpawiki.org/index.php?title=Emptiness

 
THE FOUNDATION OF EMPTINESS ~ YESHI DORJE (SIMHA)

The foundation of Emptiness is empty of  inherent independent self true existence
Like two eyes of the Buddha interdependent origination wisdom and compassion are like the two wings of the bird
And compassion to the sentient beings is inseparable from emptiness
Seeing that PHENOMENA and  SELF doesn't exist truly, solidly ,separately, Independently is the root of the path
Contemplating on this leads to cessation of suffering and leads to the truth of the path
Please bless me to see lack of inherent independent true existence

Understanding that  the all phenomena five aggregates has no true inherent true existence
All the things that we see, hear, feel, imagine are only imputed to certain trueness is conventional truth...
Water is lacking independent wateriness self existence...
what is water to human
Puss and blood to hungry ghost
Nectar to the Gods
Water itself has no true self independent nature
Due to nature of Karma different beings perceive hallucinated independent reality

Seeing the world as truly independently existent  throws us into endless   cycle of pain and misery
Like a silkworm  in a deep sleep weaving its illusory world of imaginations , hopes and fears trapped in cocoon of its own unawareness
Please bless me to exhaust these appearances free mind from all this imagination...
And Meditate on Emptiness of truly existing separate independent self and Emptiness of truly existing independent phenomena...

Every unhappy state of mind is necessarily a ignorant state of mind
Ignorant mind Viewing objects independent eternalism existence  is the root of wrong view.
Ignorant mind Viewing objects doesn't at all exist is extreme of nihilism  wrong view...
Wisdom mind Finds the middle way is to views things arise inter dependently is the right view...
with every passing breath a moment closer to death
Breaking the cocoon of confined doubts and  hesitations let me give up
belief in any  independent true existence...
And Meditate on Emptiness of inherent independent self and Emptiness of  truly existing independent phenomena...

Like different rivers all the river of purification , river of accumulation of merit, river of blessing inspiration and river of contemplation flow into ocean of profound realization of emptiness
What didn't exist before ...  Now it exists dependent on the Mind
So it doesn't exist  separately,independently... therefore it doesn't exist  truly
Please bless me ROOT GURU...Let this  truth sunk into depths of my heart and purify my
hallucinated mind stream...
