My ngakpa lama told us, that he will not explain all the samayas to us at once, because no one will take the ngakpa ordination. He said, that it is better to learn ...

Re: Who is ngagpa?

i wear zen only in private during my practice, its quite inspiring for me. And complete ngakpa robes only durings retreats, or teachings with other ngakpa sangha. This treatise is matching pretty much my feelings about ngakpa robes: http://www.jstor.org/discover/10.1086/596567?uid=3739024&uid=21...

Not too long ago, if you wanted to find a teacher you had to climb up some snow covered mountain in the Himalayas. And you had to speak Tibetan. And...

Re: Buddhist Tantra has "unstruck sound" like Hindu Tantra?

In ChNN Rinpoche: Precious Vase, in the explanation of four understanding, there is understanding thrue nature of letters. O alone stands for body, because it is something concrete, for A you dont have to do anything, just open mouth, but O we have to make some effort and so on. May be this is the p...
