Are you talking to Buddha? HILARIOUS!!!

Buddhas aren't like angels that fly down and bless you with holiness and tell you what to do. They are humans like you that have exited the life circle of sufferring and choose to come back to help others achieve their enlightenment because they feel compassion for the hurt of living things. They come in periods where there is plenty to eat and people have time to think while living their normal lives.

thank you for this clarification. i come from the catholic tradition, and the representation of the buddhas were not clear to me.

that was a very good dharma talk...

It's amazing! But aren't our Gurus the Buddha and talking to him and associating with him will bring us closer to Buddhahood. We definitely can't see Buddhas directly now but we can see our Gurus right?

Those who really have visions of the Buddhas will never advertise it and rather not talk about it unless it will really benefits. There are famous leaders of cults that say they have tea with the Buddha says a lot about their purpose...

i talk to buddha statue, good morning, good night... :-) I mean, greeting buddha when i see a buddha statue.

LOL. That is cute. I think Rinpoche is talking about having or claiming to have visions of Buddhas. We talk to our Buddha statues all the time when we do our Sadhana what.

This is great teaching on Blessing topic. A blessing is something (holy) that open us our disposition that we have in the past and wants to do something good in our life. I love this teaching. Thank you. Time :4:00

People who claimed to see Buddhas and Bodhisattvas must be on the 3rd stage or higher on the Bodhisattva path. That means they already have quite high level of attainments to be able to see. Otherwise, are those visions real?

ntadk: Hahahaha That means they have to go to English Setrap Puja at 8 PM in KH2 or Chinese Setrap Puja Tuesday 8PM. Can clear spirit obstacles and collect lots of merit.
