As you probably know he is the son of Chanchub Dorje and was wondering if he followed in his fathers steps -as in teaching ...etc-and also if he is still alive or not.Pero wrote: Nope.
Yeah I know, but I have no idea what happened to him. But actually I think he was already teaching back when Norbu Rinpoche was there because Rinpoche received CCD's termas mostly from him and not CCD himself (because according to Rinpoche it was very difficult for CCD to transmit them since he was so uneducated).alpha wrote:As you probably know he is the son of Chanchub Dorje and was wondering if he followed in his fathers steps -as in teaching ...etc-and also if he is still alive or not.Pero wrote: Nope.
You didn't read well enough, this is Ayu Khandro talking about her friend, Pema Yangkyi.Sherlock wrote:OK, from the khandro.net link
After a year she left for Kawa Karpo, a mountain in Southern Tibet which had been indicated by Trulzhi Rinpoche as the place she should go to. I later heard that she lived there for many years and had many students. Then in the Year of the Iron Boar, 1911, she took the body of light at the age of seventy-four.

The basis will remain confusing, since you need the secret instructions on lhun grub to really understand.RikudouSennin wrote:i realized most of my questions have been answered thus far, the base and rigpa still confusing but sooner or later ill get it

In Dzogchen, rigpa means knowledge of one's nature. As opposed to ignorance (marigpa).
SSJ3Gogeta wrote:At the trekcho level, rigpa is knowledge of the instant of unfabricated freshness and the nature of mind (mirror-like clarity which conversely cannot be found).
At the lhun grub practice level, one can eliminate all delusion in regard to one's nature, the basis (gzhi).
Don't succumb to translations that use awareness.

No worries.
This is not right at all. Thoughts are insubstantial and are just movements of wind (vayu).RikudouSennin wrote: Lately it has appeared to me that the objective world is a projection of mind or thoughts,like this laptop began as a tought in a persons mind etc but now here it is manifest before my eyes.

If you are a diligent person, have received introduction and applied the teachings of Dzogchen to your life in a concrete way, you will never need to fear of returning to samsara's three realms ever again. Even if you do not acheive full awakening in this life you will either acheive full awakening in the bardo, or in a nirmanakāya buddhafield.
Is the nirmanakaya buddhafield in one of samsara's realm? i.e.: formless.

The fact that it's believed to be an objective 'thing' existing separate from you, is indeed a product of conceptualization. So imputation of thought does play a role on that level (a rather large role), but not in the sense you proposed though. It's much more immediate than the process you posited. Conditioning and habitual tendencies are what maintain it.RikudouSennin wrote:well in that case im curious as to the meaning thoughts arise from emptiness?
