Recorded at Open Secret Bookstore, San Rafael, CA; June 5, 2008
Language: Rinpoche teaches in English

Lama Tharchin Rinpoche teaches on Dudjom Lingpa's Green Tara prayer, “The Eightfold Profound Essence." 

“Green Tara embodies the activity of all buddhas. Her special quality is protection from the eight terrors (drolma jigpa gyay gyob). After his death, Dudjom Lingpa appeared to his son, Tersay Dorje Dradul, in a vision and gave him this Green Tara practice. It is extremely profound and powerful, yet very easy to practice and accumulate. It offers protection from all our fear and suffering, whether immediate or long-term. Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche always did this practice and very often gave it to his monastery and drubdra as well as to many other students, so I thought it would be very special for us to do.” - Lama Tharchin Rinpoche

Green Tara Teachings

Green Tara Teachings OS 2008-06-05

The guru is so vast and infinite that to consider the guru solely as a teacher or guide is very limited. When we cherish the guru, we cherish the fact that we have a mind and the ability to be aware. This constant flow of awareness is the quintessential guru, but it needs to be revealed and nurtured by our immediate gurus and our lineage gurus. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche was the emanation of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and the guru of many great teachers from different lineages. When we remember him on the anniversary of his parinirvana, we create the conditions to come closer to our innate guru.

Lapis Lazuli Light: Teachings for Health Professionals in Bhutan & Beyond, 2 August 2022, Online

When we talk about healing, we think about healing the body, but for buddhists mind is primary and body is secondary, so dealing with disorders of the mind is paramount. Buddhism has very progressive views on how to restore an ailing mind. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche responds to five questions posed by Bhutanese health professionals on the topic of Buddhism and healing. The lapis lazuli stone is blue, like the Medicine Buddha and the sky: the largest natural blue thing in our world. We see the sky above us; it is both there and not there. This space is one of the greatest metaphors in Buddhism to express emptiness or shunyata, and understanding emptiness heals everything.

Lapis Lazuli Light, 2 August 2022, Online

Practising vipassana is all about experiencing life directly. Sadhana is a systematic means to reach a goal. Though traditional sadhana practice might involve ritual offerings and visualisation of deities, the ultimate goal is to have this direct experience. Traditionally, vipassana practice is associated with sitting straight and focusing on the breath. This practice has much merit and should be upheld, but to apply vipassana in the modern world we need to adopt a much more abundant and infinite approach. We need to train our minds through the contemplation of impermanence, “unsatisfactoriness” (dukkha) and emptiness to find the courage to go outside our comfort zones, to see the world as it is and find liberation through a direct experience of the truth.
