Re: What are the Ngagpa vows?
It is also said, that no one can hold all the samayas in a perfect way. Therefore we do also purification with ganapuja or Vajrasattva. 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 ...

Onec somebody told me, that consciousness is related more to senses, but I dont think so. Anyway, what I wanna also know in this context, is real meaning of jňa (i...

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...

Re: Searching for a guru
I have been there, a beautiful place, but very far away from me (3.5 hour drive) That's FUNNY!!!! Well, I hope you get your drivers license soon then. 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: About 5 years trying to practice ChNN's teachings...
This is actually a good sign Padma Norbu. :thumbsup: It means your fantasies are crumbling and you start to see how it really goes and what does it take.

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...

Re: Long Life Prayer for ChNN?
I do have a long life prayer for ChNN from one lama, if I remeber from some himalayan monastery in Nepal. Tomorrow I will scan it and post it here.

while for most of us it is hard/impossible to rest in direct perception thus many methods are needed.. though I would imagine that many people would be happy to be given karmamudra as one of the (lower level practices) and a suitable consort at that too...

Re: Naropa, Marpa, Milarepa Contradiction that Bothers Me
Something that bothers me. Did Naropa, Marpa, Milarepa have physical bodies after Buddhahood? If so that contradicts Vajrayana itself. After Buddhahood is obtained, one should no longer have a physical body. So it seems to me, that according to your philosophy even Buddha Shakyamuni didnt achieve c...
