Dhyāna, 15 November 2021, Hong Kong, China

Meditation has become fashionable as a way to de-stress and calm the mind but being relaxed and peaceful is not the ultimate goal of the Buddhadharma. Our lives are full of anxiety, loneliness and alienation, and we view all our problems from a very narrow perspective. Understanding the three fundamental buddhist truths of anicca, dukkha and anatta can help us view our lives from a wider perspective and dhyāna or meditation is a method to help us see and maintain these three truths. Rinpoche ends the teaching with some practical advice about meditation.

Calling The Guru from Afar, 30 June - 1 July 2010, Menz, Germany

In his commentary on this important mindfulness teaching by the great nineteenth-century rimé (non-sectarian) master, Jamgön Kongtrül Lodrö Thaye, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche explains that guru devotion, or “calling to the guru” is a technique to attack our habit of self-cherishing. The text can be depressing as it clearly details all our negative habits, yet the most profound teachings are those that disturb rather than inspire us. We repeatedly call on the guru to recognize us because we do not see that the guru is always with us. We ask for the blessings of the guru to cut through our pride, ego-clinging and dualistic vision. Through supplicating the guru, our intellectual understanding of the dharma can develop into the confidence that ultimately the guru is none other than buddhanature: the fundamental nature of our mind.

[English only] Calling The Guru from Afar, 30 June - 1July 2010, Menz, Germany - Part 3

The Buddha is a revolutionary whose Four Noble Truths remain applicable today. Buddhists believe that nothing is perfect nor certain, that everything is illusory, and that all sentient beings are Buddha. The Buddhist view can liberate us from false assumptions in this age of identity politics and obsession with self-improvement. Ethical conduct in Buddhism has three categories: avoiding unwholesome actions, developing wholesome activities and benefitting others, but ultimately includes anything that takes us closer to the truth. Always remember that wisdom or truth is the driver of the car, compassion is in the passenger seat and ethics is at the back.

Buddhist View and Conduct for Today’s Challenges, 8 November 2024, Santiago, Chile

Teaching based on The Gold Sūtra | https://84000.co/translation/toh125 
Our mind is primordially pure just like gold, but we human beings forget this and become lost in anxiety and fear. We long for this truth, which paradoxically we have never really lost. Our insecurities, self-hatred and confusion may obscure the true nature of our mind but cannot change its primordial purity.
