Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche 1/5

The Life of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

This film is an authentic portrait of Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, one of Tibet's great contemporary teachers, considered to be a "Master of Masters" among the four schools of Tibetan Buddhism.

Renowned as a great meditator, guru, poet, scholar and as one of the main teachers of the Dalai Lama, the Nyingma Lama Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche died in 1991. Ten years in the making, this film began in 1989 when translator Matthieu Riacrd and Vivian Kurz began taping extensive footage of their teacher. Shot in rarely filmed Kham, Eastern Tibet, as well as Nepal, Bhutan, India and France, the film shows the rich and intricate tapestry Of Tibetan Buddhism and is a witness to the strength, wisdom and depth of Tibetan culture.

Narration by Richard Gere with music by Philip Glass.

The video is great but the information is falsified.Buddha was not an Indian prince , he was a Shakya prince(shakya being the clan of Buddha) who was born in Lumbini in a country then called Kapilvastu which is North of India and the present day Nepal.

Yes, that's correct

When I see images of this area of the world I literally shed tears of joy and my whole body is immersed in pulsations. I wish to find out why...

Heartfelt gratitude and respect for your film about Tibetan culture and its very great wisdom lama tradition as exemplified in sublimely kind and wise Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.

@razeshanselmo > He was a Shakya Prince, and you can say an Indian Prince also. Because it was in north of India.

Has anyone else seen My Reincarnation? ‘Khyentse’ was the name of one of the main character’s reincarnations in that film. The idea of the application of universal ideas to help others really comes across in that film bitly . com / uIr2nk

@smrndoff thanks so much for your comment. after all what's being in control? observing things as they really are, or suppressing your emotions? no answer needed. it's just a rhetorical question. in kindness.

[americanempireprojec]

@Inoitspointless maybe! nor do I wish to be 'right in the head' to fit your perspective. otherwise I would be spreading degrading comments much like you are. thanks for that! in kindness.

@smrndoff This was an unnecessary comment. Some people simply have a great profound faith - it's something that someone who has never had a personal experience of can sneer at, but ultimately, this derision points to a lack of passion and also respect. I don't know, but your mother probably told you once "if you have nothing good to say, say nothing", and that's wisdom to live by.
