17th Karmapa Thaye Dorje Interview part 3

This video is part three of three of an interview HH the 17th Karmapa Thaye Dorje gave to Danish television in 2004. The original interview was 40 minutes long. The short version is 14 minutes long split into 3 parts. No, I'm afraid I don't have the full version.

If you're interested in HH Karmapa Thaye Dorje, check on his MySpace profile here: http://www.myspace.com/blackhatlama
It's actually from him, and contains more videos as well as pictures and blogs.

For a long time, in the interest of free expression, I haven't deleted any comments, even mildly abusive or highly misguided ones. Recently, however, we've had lots of comments repeating the same already-explained confused points of fact, and I don't want to repeat the same things over and over. Believe me, I'm aware of the differences of opinion, and that's a different matter. It's all there in the full comment history, if you're interested. So I'm gonna have to moderate from now on, and repetitive confused comments will just be rejected. Please have a look what others have posted and then feel free to post your own comments. Thanks for watching! KARMAPA CHENNO!

Sorry for my English (I French Boudhiste practionner.) he(it) I am sorry but I interessse me and study and looks has to understand for 10 years this history(story). For me it is clear !! Inform you!!!!!!!

Take(Bring) out sites of Thaye Dorje and Shamar please.

All is clear..

Peace in the Dharma !

@laurent975 Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you have confidence in your teacher.

Shamar Rinpoche is the second highest authority in the Karma Kagyu, as confirmed by the 16th Karmapa, so I'm not sure you understand what you're asking when you say take out his site (?). Perhaps you didn't read The Karmapa Papers, Rogues in Robes, and Buddha's Not Smiling. One doesn't need 10 years, just enough information.. I have spoken to many people involved in the situation, and all is indeed very clear...

[laurent975]

HI,

But for the rest of the world, and the various lineages of the Tibetan Buddhism, there is no possible controversy as for Orgyen Trinlé Dorjé's identity as being Karmapa. " and not this lama.

Everybody believe in Karmapa Orgyen everything and all the big master of the Buddhism Tibetan, the leaders of lineages as well as three of four regents of the lineage OF THE KAGYUPAS and the integrality of the Tibetans (More than 99 %.) and of course the Dalai-Lama !

[Gandalf1976]

@laurent975 Not really. Several important masters of other lineages have given Karmapa Thaye Dorje the initiations and transmissions needed to complete his education. Of course everyone tiptoes around the political issues but they know who is who. The highest Kagyu lama after Karmapa - Shamar Rinpoche - is clear who he supports. The opinions of other lower-ranking Kagyu lamas or lamas of unrelated lineages really don't matter that much.

what happened with the rest of the Karmapa interview?

[Gandalf1976]

@fulmoonn I wish I had the full thing..

[klejewicz]

what are you talking about, H H Sharmapa said clearly that The only true Karmapa is Trinley Taye Dorje and the other lad is just a Chines doll just to keep some power upon Tibetans.

just practice dharma

Quote: We should rejoice in whoever has done anything positive, never to have aversion towards anyone. By showing gratitude and simply rejoicing, we stand to gain. Moreover, a person cannot judge another person. All the dramas could be the manifestation of Buddhas & Bodhisattvas for us to learn. Everything becomes practice. Unquote by Thaye Dorje Karmapa!

[andyedgar50]

@ikhamo Really, that is a bold statement posing as fact?!

[dtseringdorje]

A Korean Zen Master So Sahn wrote in His manual for Zen practitioners that to wear monk robe and not doing monk job corectly, it is better to leave monkhood to become a layman. If false prestige and harmful activity take place the involved monk a poseur and pretender is destined to Avici Hell. Why? The Buddhadharma is very benevolent and powerful. Those who practise with honesty, get access to powerful insights and awareness transformations leading to enlightenment. False won't do. Bad karma !

What joy to see what a man can be, what we have at our disposal.

If only 30% of all (young) man where like this the world would truly be paradise.

@klejewicz completely irrelevant as it has nothing do with sambuddhi. wether he is or isnt doesnt help you use the tools to reach sambuddhi breaking out of the ocean of samsara and attaning nibbana. He could've said the bannana in his hand is the true karmapa, so what. Concerning yourselves wth irrelevant things also bring dukkha.

[CHINALAMA]

Long live karmapa, Long live kagyupa.Gelugpa stay out of this.
