Padmasambhava Ambient Dzogchen

This video was done with the help of my friend Michael Mish who did the video editing and special effects. The video uses three photos I took of two statues on my altar. One is of a Padmasambhava statue that is modeled on the "looks like me" statue that was in Samye that Padmasambhava had blessed so that future generations could access his healing energy by looking at it with sincerity and openness. The statue has Padmasambhava doing an awakening stare mudra (also used by Sufis to generate a moment of wakefulness). The second statue aka doll is of Yoda, the Jedi Knight, who I feel is a tulpa (not to be confused with "tulku" who is a meditation master who can reincarnate while retaining continuity of memory between lifetimes). A tulpa is an being created through collective imagination and visualization who is coming to life as a sentient being and who is at least alive as an archetype within the human collective unconsciousness. Both beings embody a level of enlightenment that can handle ordinary life on its own terms, especially when it is challenging, conflictual, and intense. The video ends with a summary phrase regarding the essence of Dzogchen Buddhist enlightenment. I do not own copyrights to Yoda. But I do own the Yoda doll (it was a special edition that came out for Xmas one year and which has amazing detail and realism) and did take the photo, and the picture is incidental and not central to the video. I assessed that was was OK to use the photo, since many other videos have used Yoda and short portions of copyrighted video footage more directly, while I only used one picture of something that I did own, and am making no direct profit from this video.
