You Are Your Own Master, 20 June 2021, Vancouver, Canada

"Todo el mundo quiere tener el control;
Todo el mundo quiere estar a cargo;
Todo el mundo es un controlador compulsivo,
Así que por qué no aprender a controlar."

Tú Eres Tu Propio Maestro

"Todos querem estar no controle;
Todos querem estar no comando;
Basicamente, todos são loucos por controle.
Então por que não aprender como fazer?"

Você É Seu Próprio Mestre

每個人都想控制
每個人都想作主
每個人基本都是控制狂
所以倒不如學習怎樣去做

你是你自己的上師

You Are Your Own Master

"Tout le monde veut avoir le contrôle;
Tout le monde veut avoir la charge de tout;
Tout le monde est au fond un maniaque du contrôle,
Alors autant apprendre à le faire."

Tu Es Ton Propre Maître

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.

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.
