Re: Buddhahood in This Life
Hello to Malcolm and all,
I was wondering if one will be able to read this book if they do not have direct introduction? The person in question is very religious but belongs to a different faith. If they are not interested in receiving DI then what can I do to secure their liberation permanently?

I "attended" the Lung with Tulku Dakpa Rinpoche via webcast in September....I finally started reading it today for the first time...
Thank you Malcolm

My personal opinion is to secure liberation for yourself first and leave other people to choose their own religious worldview without persuasion or mediation.Strive wrote: ↑Mon Jul 03, 2017 7:07 pm Hello to Malcolm and all,

Re: Buddhahood in This Life
Relevant to the last part of Strive's post. Did you want to reply to it by yourself or something?

Re: Buddhahood in This Life
If they have eyes and understand English then of course they can read it, but it won't mean much to them and it may not be all that helpful.
I find that torturing people into converting really works well. But seriously: being a living example of the teaching is the best method. Basically that means that you have to practice your ass off.The person in question is very religious but belongs to a different faith.

Re: Buddhahood in This Life
Handful of people in this world can lead another to liberation, fewer of those teach, and no one can secure liberation for another. So moot question anyway. The faster folks come to terms with this the better.

I don't use facebook. Is there an alternative way to register and pay?

Re: Buddhahood in This Life
Will there be an online broadcast of this event? I would be interested if that were possible and would still be happy to pay the donation fee. Thank you!
Re: Buddhahood in This Life
I cannot promise anything, but if you attended the online lung, then I think I can make the recordings available.

Re: Buddhahood in This Life
If I ask a Lama to give me the Lung for this book, how much time would he need for it?
Re: Buddhahood in This Life
I would be most interested in this, if it's possible to arrange. I'd treat it the same way as attending in person by way of offering the suggested donation fee. Of course I would really like to attend in person but I don't think that's possible.
Very happy to see this happen either way!
Re: Buddhahood in This Life
Sounds like a great teaching. I think I'll check it out, in person.
