Dharma Wheel

Few genuine teachers decide to give DI online. One is Garchen Rinpoche (https://garchen.net/annual-events/), and you are fairly certain to get DI (alongside liberating instructions) from him in the form of the fourth empowerment, whenever he gives a wang. The next one is in September: https://garch...

Rinpoche literally pleaded with us constantly to treat each other well, to have pure vision and give the benefit of the doubt. I certainly don't see this when people are quick to indict Yeshi based on a few things they've heard second hand. This will have absolutely no effect on him or the situatio...

I rewatched the movie yesterday, as I was reminded of it by the latest posts, it's nice. It does not really bring up people creating problems though, as far as I could tell, It focuses on Yeshi's relationship with his father and his struggle with being a tulku. ChNN's cancer was directly related to...

Can you or PeterC elaborate a little?

To equate not having a public forum with secrecy doesn't make sense, we are open and transparent within its members, not to the public. Right, and so why do Yeshe threaten to sue anyone that talks about what happened on a meeting with 500 people? That isn't very transparent in my eyes. /magnus Pard...

As someone who doesn't know much about Nyingma I wonder why such questions are posed online instead of addressing directly the teacher or the students of the teacher who gave the practice. Whenever I saw such practice-concerning questions online the answers differed widely even within the same trad...

I received a surprise lung for the LN Ngondro During a weekend of teachings last year. The guru yoga section of the sadhana the lama read from contained a self-generation of Vajrayogini: https://www.lotsawahouse.org/tibetan-masters/dodrupchen-I/longchen-nyingtik Do I need a Vajrayogini empowerment ...

Thank you all.

Lama Lena is giving a teaching on May 1 on FB which will include pointing out (as per usual) I believe. No fee, just Dana - so no problem. After that you can watch/listen to her and Lama Wangdor’s teachings on her website. So just “join” or “follow” (or whatever the term is) The Lama Lena Teachings ...

For the time being, though, it does seem that he is not offering to lead those who had transmission from ChNN. Therefore talk of him leading the whole DC community is at best way too early to be meaningful. I agree it’s too early to speculate meaningfully about Yeshi’s plans, but I don’t know if I ...

Its easy as long as we’re naturally not-distracted, without effort, judgements, striving or cultivation. Speaking for myself though, it’s easier for me to get distracted than almost anything else.

Eh?
The people posting in this thread lack merit or the DC people in general lack merit?

*turn my foot up and look at the bottom of my shoe*
God damn it. Stinks.

Apparently there are three people who Rinpoche gave permission to transmit dzogchen:his son, his daughter and a guy in China. A person i met recently, who had some first hand information, mentioned that he heard Rinpoche’s daughter saying that she will be happy to give transmission in the future bu...

If you say so.

Ah...you equate myth with fairytale. They are very different. Myth can come from the depths, from the chthonic. From ancient and formative times. To describe something as mythic does not mean that it is unreal, on the contrary it can mean hyper real, energised and powerful. If you assert that myths...

Was there some kind of trauma caused by Vajrayana literalists that happened here I’m not aware of? Were you guys threatened with Vajra hell by a dharma bully? Whats with the tude against traditional explanations and narratives? Are you trying to make this place inhospitable to traditional practitio...
