Documentaire

Christmas considered from a Buddhist perspective by Lama Thubten Yeshe. Inspiring, thought-provoking. Includes an eight-verse mind-training section for eradicating the demon of the self-cherishing mind, illustrations, and a glossary. Lama Yeshe on the Spirit of Christmas: “True love does not depend on physical expression. You should realize this. True love is a feeling deep within you. It is not just a matter of wearing a smile on your face and looking happy. Rather, it arises from a heartfelt understanding of every other being’s suffering and radiates out to all of them indiscriminately. It does not favor a chosen few to the exclusion of everyone else. This is true love.” ― Thubten Yeshe, Silent Mind, Holy Mind.

The essence of Tibetan Buddhism

Lama Yeshe

Publié en 2001

Livre
Documentaire

The Three Principal Aspects of the Path and an Introduction to Tantra. “Meditation is not on the level of the object but on that of the subject— you are the business of your meditation.” “Bodhicitta is very practical, I tell you. It’s like medicine. The self-cherishing thought is like a nail or a sword in your heart; it always feels uncomfortable. With bodhicitta, from the moment you begin to open, you feel incredibly peaceful and you get tremendous pleasure and inexhaustible energy. Forget about enlightenment— as soon as you begin to open yourself to others, you gain tremendous pleasure and satisfaction. Working for others is very interesting; it’s an infinite activity. Your life becomes continuously rich and interesting.” “ Historically, Shakyamuni Buddha taught the four noble truths. To whose culture do the four noble truths belong? The essence of religion has nothing to do with any one particular country ’s culture. Compassion, love, reality—to whose culture do they belong? The people of any country, any nation, can implement the three principal aspects of the path, the four noble truths or the eightfold path. There ’s no contradiction at all.”
