Re: A question about secrecy within Tibetan Buddhism
Then, you should accumulate merit by practicing Ngondro. Your inability to receive higher teachings means one of two things: you do not have a karmic cause and condition to meet the teachers you want to meet; or two, you have not accumulated enough merit to meet them.

Re: Remedy Gyalpo
Back in the day, folks were getting shaktipat-ed by seeing certain pictures, even posters on telephone poles. Those with the right kind of siddhis can use pictures for nefarious reasons. If some "healers" can use photos to heal, "harmers" could use photos to harm. how come it is so easy for you guy...

Re: Remedy Gyalpo
What can remedial activities be done after having strange dreams with some Gyalpo entities? Any tips? Depends on your capacity and the strength of the spirit. Best bet is to appease via offerings.

Re: Instant Presence and Physical Pain
Hi Kathy, you realise that this is a quote from one of the books by Haruki Murakami, it has nothing particular to do with Buddhism. /magnus I have heard the quote from many sources, and I suspect it is apocryphal. I know that it has nothing explicitly to do with Buddhism. But it is a propos when ta...
