I heard about that on videos before. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche really is the best person I can relate to, as Rinpoche spoke about growing up in America, the things he did , the parties, etc. Yet, Rinpoche could still be spiritual and keep up with his Dharma practice.

It's true. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche would be able to relate to us modern spiritual seekers better, as Rinpoche grew up in the United States as a normal "kid", and later hanging out in California. Many people don't know that Rinpoche worked many "normal jobs" to first save enough money to go become a monk.

I read Tsem Tulku Rinpoche's book, Gurus for Hire. I highly recommend this book. Rinpoche is really the best person to comment on topics like guru devotion, and the spiritual path, as he was a spiritual seeker, a student, serving many Gurus, and later being a Guru himself.

@MoiraKelly1 Rinpoche was a student of and was serving Geshe Tsultim Gyeltsen in America when he was a teenager.

Tsem Tulku Rinpoche has a niche, he was the "average Dharma student" trying his best serving his Guru and looking for spiritual path, just like any of us modern people living a normal life, before he become the Guru himself.

[MoiraKelly1]

I never thought about that until you brought it up. Yeah, it's great. I mean Tsem Tulku Rinpoche was not the "golden child", he was "one of us" , as a Dharma student serving his Guru, and only later he became the Guru. Quite interesting.

Amazing. Gekulas comment that Tsem Tulku Rinpoches Dharma teaching was good to hear at that time, when Rinpoche was just a young monk in the monastery.

[MoiraKelly1]

What a nice advice from Gekula about Dharma work and path. That these students are very fortunate to have a good Guru like H.E. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche.

I like the videos of What Tsem Rinpoche thinks of the Dalai Lama??!! Rinpoche shares a lot about his interaction with his Gurus in these videos.

[tsemiscool]

I guess thats why Rinpoches words are influential he has been practicing Guru Devotion when he was just a student, up till today. If you watch the videos, you will see how Rinpoche always show respects when Rinpoche talks about his Gurus.
