I recently began taking that practice (8 verses of mind transformation). May I ask, what it exactly does? I recite it in my practice as well. I always recall the verses when I am out with others and it helps me feel more humble while cherishing others.
@BodhiOshin You are so right I'm grateful for Rinpoche to give us this talk, else we would not really know what His Holiness has done to benefit Buddhism in general. His Holiness is one of the few Buddhists powerhouse who can fill stadiums!!!
Not just the Tibetan Buddhism, but Buddhism as a whole - including Zen Buddhism, all have love and gratitude for His Holiness The Dalai Lama. A Great discourse by Tsem Rinpoche - Many Regards
@NinjaSuneku I have no idea about the Shugden issue, but I'm glad we are not involved in this. Anyways His position has dual role spiritual and political. Plus His Holiness has done a lot to bring the Dharma to the modern world, I appreciate his contributions. His talks and books are really profound too.
What I don't like about the Dalai Lama is his obsession with politics and controlling the lives of the Tibetan people. HH the XIV and his predecessors have all been wonderful teachers, and extremely well-educated and intelligent people... but I think he has fallen far too deeply into his political position rather than serving the people as a spiritual advisor. He is supposedly the incarnation of the absolute emanation of compassion... and yet he promotes discrimination against Shugden worshipers
@bsfbkhdj in a video on His Holiness Succession he was saying that Karmapa and Ling Rinpoche to continue his work. As a Buddhist practitioner I would be more inclined to play more importance in the survival of Buddhism rather than Tibet.
The greatest gift from the Tibet was the Buddha Dharma and the tantric traditions kept since the days of the Indian pandits and the masters who taught it now all over the world. I do symphatise with the TIbetans. No one is really on the Tibetans side.
Tsem Tulku said the "four legitimate traditions of Tibetan Buddhism" but actually there is a fifth one: the Jonang school.
