Poison is Medicine, 3 August 2021, Halifax, Canada

Poison is medicine. That is magic. Medicine is poison is also magic. There is no ultimate poison nor ultimate medicine. And when we fall into the trap of seeing poison as poison only and medicine as medicine only, we deprive ourselves of this deep and vast magic. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche gives a very personal introduction to the nature of the tantric path for those who aspire to be Vajrayana students.

Rinpoche’s book “Poison is Medicine” was written to clarify misunderstandings about the Vajrayana path and is available for free download at: https://www.siddharthasintent.org/resources/features/poison-is-medicine/

The Good Eon, 5 March 2022, Online - Part 2

This sutra was initiated by Shakyamuni Buddha, at the end of a retreat in Vaishali. Present were monks, bodhisattvas, ghosts, nagas and rakshas: an audience of many different types of beings. Among them was a bodhisattva called Supreme Joy, who posed 17 questions concerning how a bodhisattva can help all sentient beings. These questions lead us outside the limits of conventional thinking, to consider what it means to have genuine compassion for the multiplicity of sentient beings. This eon is good because more than 1,000 Buddhas and more than 84,000 ways of accessing the truth will appear.

Lama Tharchin Rinpoche teaches on the practice of Guru Yoga and the Seven Line Prayer in the Vajrayana. Open Secret Bookstore, San Rafael, California, January 26, 2009. 

Rinpoche says, "The point of guru yoga is to train in merging our mind with our lama's wisdom mind and to have those qualities of wisdom and compassion that we glimpse within our lama's mind inhabit our own mind." In these Open Secret teachings, Rinpoche guides us in using guru yoga meditation on Guru Rinpoche to awaken the uncontrived, uncontaminated, primordial state of enlightenment that is our own natural, indwelling, primordial state of being.
