In March 2018, Rinpoche taught at Deer Park Institute in Bir, India on ‘Hinamudra'. In this teaching (a play on Mahamudra) Rinpoche presents a groundbreaking and inclusive view of the ways that modern people can relate and actually do relate to the Buddhist path. 
Admirers of the Buddha, resonate with the words and actions of the Buddha, appreciating its noble aspirations for all beings, even though they may not identify as Buddhist.  
Buddhists take the Buddhist vow as a commitment to be guided by its wisdom. These people may not be engaged in formal practice.
Dharma practitioners are those who put the Buddhist teachings into practice and for whom the concerns of this life are less.

Hinamudra - 4

ཧྲཱིཾཿ  ཚངས་པའི་ཡིད་ཀྱི་སྲས་མོ་ནི།  །
Hrīṃ! Daughter of the mind of Brahmā
རོལ་པའི་མཚོ་ཆེན་ལས་བྱུང་བ།  །
Arisen from the great lake of enjoyment,
ཟླ་ལྟར་དཀར་བའི་ཞལ་མངའ་མ།  །
With your face as pure and white as the moon 
དབྱངས་ཅན་ལྷ་མོར་ཕྱག་འཚལ་བསྟོད།  །
Goddess Sarasvatī, to you I pay homage!
-Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö
