Sogyal Rinpoche - Natural Great Peace

Born in Kham in Eastern Tibet, Sogyal Rinpoche was recognized as the incarnation of Lerab Lingpa Tertön Sogyal, a teacher to the thirteenth Dalai Lama, by Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lödro, one of the most outstanding masters of the twentieth century. Jamyang Khyentse supervised Rinpoches training and raised him like his own son. In 1971, Rinpoche went to England where he received a Western education, studying Comparative Religion at Cambridge University. He went on to study with many other great masters, of all schools of Tibetan Buddhism, serving as their translator and aide. With his remarkable gift for presenting the essence of Tibetan Buddhism in a way that is both authentic and profoundly relevant to the modern mind, Sogyal Rinpoche is one of the most renowned teachers of our time. He is also the author of the highly-acclaimed and ground breaking book, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. Two million copies of this spiritual classic have been sold in 30 languages and 59 countries. It has been adopted by colleges, groups and institutions, both medical and religious, and is used extensively by nurses, doctors and health care professionals. Rinpoche is also the founder and spiritual director of Rigpa, an international network of 106 Buddhist centers and groups in 23 countries around the world. He has been teaching for over 30 years and continues to travel widely in Europe, America, Australia, and Asia, addressing thousands of people on his retreats and teaching tours.

Thank you - if we would all rest in natural great peace there would be no more war - so may it be

[holeinthematrix]

Thank you for this - wise words. We all need to remember sometimes; just to take time to calm and focus, the initial problem will slowly fade.

Check out WITH THESE EYES for answer to the question: What would it mean to the leaders of industry if mankind were suddenly presented with nature’s gift of a sustainable green energy source?

My teacher said to me:" Dog, cat, cloud, tree-better than Buddha, better than Zen Master and also better than your mouth. If you don't make anything, they are always teaching you." I am watching Sogyal on You-tube and my cat is sleeping all evening on an armchair near in a living room. Sweet dreams Georgik. Miaoou. Miiiiaaooouuu. Bum. Buuumm. MMMiiaoou.
