This video addresses about importance of knowing fundamentals of Buddhism before practicing advanced spiritual practice such as #Chod, which literally means “cutting through”, that aims at cutting through the hindrances or obscurations of self-cherishing thought and ignorance. #Buddhism #Meditation

"What is important is not so much how long you live as whether you live a meaningful life.This doesn’t mean accumulating money & fame, but being of service to your fellow human beings. It means helping others if you can, but even if you can’t do that, at least not harming them."- H.H. the Dalai Lama

Why is Tibet known as the ‘Water Tower of Asia’? Most of Asia's largest rivers (Yangtze, Mekong, Salween, Brahmaputra, Indus among others) originate in Tibet, making Tibetan plateau home to one of the world's largest freshwater reserves. #rivers #Tibet #Himalayas #environment #Asia #photography

Statement Affirming the Continuation of the Institution of Dalai Lama 🙏🙏🙏 "I hereby reiterate that the Gaden Phodrang Trust has sole authority to recognize the future reincarnation; No one else has any such authority to interfere in this matter. " - H.H. the Dalai Lama #DalaiLama
On 24 Sept 2011,at meeting of heads of Tibetan spiritual traditions, I made statement to fellow Tibetans in & outside Tibet, followers of Tibetan Buddhism & those who have a connection with Tibet &Tibetans, regarding whether institution of the Dalai Lama should continue I stated,“As far back as 1969, I made clear that concerned people should decide whether the Dalai Lama’s reincarnations should continue in future.”…. Although I’ve had no public discussions on this issue,over last 14 yrs leaders of Tibet’s spiritual traditions,members of Tibetan Parliament in Exile, participants in Special General Body Meeting,members of Central Tibetan Administration,NGOs, Buddhists from Himalayan region,Mongolia,Buddhist republics of the Russian Federation & Buddhists in Asia including mainland China,have written to me with reasons,earnestly requesting that institution of the Dalai Lama continue. In particular, I've received messages through various channels from Tibetans in Tibet making same appeal.In accordance with all these requests,I'm affirming that institution of the Dalai Lama will continue.The process by which future Dalai Lama is to be recognized has been clearly established in  24 Sept 2011 statement which states that responsibility for doing so will rest exclusively with members of Gaden Phodrang Trust, the Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. They should consult various heads of Tibetan Buddhist traditions & reliable oath-bound Dharma Protectors who're linked inseparably to lineage of the Dalai Lamas.They should accordingly carry out the procedures of search & recognition in accordance with past tradition.I hereby reiterate that the Gaden Phodrang Trust has sole authority to recognize the future reincarnation; no one else has any such authority to interfere in this matter.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Ultimately, we human beings depend on nature, so we must preserve our close relations with her. Sometimes we seem to think that technology will solve our problems and allow us to do whatever we like. This Earth Day let’s remember that the reality is we have to protect our world.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them at least don't hurt them. Love And Compassion Are Necessities, Not Luxuries. Without Them, Humanity Cannot Survive. – Dalai Lama DALAI LAMA #Buddhism #Meditation #Wisdom #love #Peace #Buddhisattvas

For all who suffer from the misery of poverty, oppression, & torture, ✨ Afflicted by harm, disease, or the imbalance of natural elements, ✨ May their outer and inner hardships and obstacles be wholly pacified, ✨ And may they find enduring peace and liberation from suffering. ✨ ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨེ་ཧཱུྃ། 🪷
The most popular mantra in Tibet is the Buddhist mantra of Avalokiteshwara, Bodhisattva of Compassion. ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨེ་ཧཱུྃ་ཧྲཱིཿ (In Tibetan) "I believe in altruism. No matter how capable a person may be, no one can survive alone. We depend on the community in which we live. By dedicating ourselves to the welfare of others, we actually bring about our own benefit. As soon as I wake in the morning, I dedicate myself to helping others to be happy, which gives me self-confidence and inner strength." - His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso. "For all those who suffer from the misery of poverty, oppression, and torture,
Beset by harm, pestilence, or an imbalance of the elements,
May all their hardships and obstacles, outer and inner, be fully pacified,
And may they revel eternally in the glory of every happiness and bliss.
With sincere prayers that all this will come to pass exactly as is expressed in these words." - Ling Rinpoche, New Delhi, India

When we offer light, the results are the realization of Clear Light wisdom phenomena in this life; the clarification of dualistic mind and the dispersal of confusion and realization of Clear Light in the bardo; and the increase of wisdom in each lifetime until one has reached enlightenment.

Life is short, and the time of death is uncertain; so apply yourself to meditation. Avoid doing evil, and acquire merit, to the best of your ability, even at the cost of life itself. In short, act so that you will have no cause to be ashamed of yourselves; and hold fast to this rule. - Milarepa.

We should remember that we are visitors on this planet. We are here for 90 or 100 years at the most. During this time, we should work to leave the world a better place because all human beings want to be happy, and no one wants to suffer. Our desire for happiness is something we all have in common.
