Seven Line Supplication

In this modern world we are more interconnected than ever before, yet people seem to be more lonely than they were in the past. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche addresses this problem through a buddhist lens by asking the questions, “Who is lonely?” and “What is loneliness?” This leads to an analysis of the nature of the self, and the subjectivity of our perceptions. Finally, practical suggestions are made for how we can liberate ourselves from loneliness.

The Perfection of Wisdom

The Perfection of Wisdom Sutra presents a fundamental view of the Buddha Dharma and how we can follow the path to an awakened mind. For Mahayana practitioners, this sutra is the essence of the Buddha’s teachings. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche gives a brief introduction to the sutra on Saga Dawa, a very special day when the Buddha fully awakened to the truth.

The Perfection of Wisdom in Eighteen Thousand Lines, 14 June 2022, Kalimpong, India

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.

Today we share with you a recording of H.H. Drikung Kyabgön Chetsang Rinpoche reciting our third text in this well-being series, "Tārā Who Protects from the Eight Dangers," as well as one of Ani Jasmine reading the text in English.  

For Tibetan Buddhists, "Tārā Who Protects from the Eight Dangers" [https://read.84000.co/translation/toh731.html] is a prayer to the deity Tārā that describes the eight great dangers, and how Tārā's qualities and attributes can be beneficial to us all.  

As the pandemic continues, and environmental and social uncertainty rage around the world, we continue on with our Sūtras for Well-Being series to bring to you the texts traditionally recited for resilience and well-being in times of adversity, and the stories behind them.
