Public Talk: The Nature of Gain and Loss

Our understanding of gain and loss is confused. We make individual short term plans, expecting instant long term results however our happiness is short lived. The ancient teachings of the Buddha show that when we think only of ourselves, our relationships and businesses suffer. By recognising cause and effect, we can create positive conditions that benefit ourselves and others.

Empowerment & Teaching: Spontaneous Peace

Three-Day Dzogchen Retreat: Spontaneous Peace

When we look outside ourselves for happiness, lasting joy eludes us. External phenomena are impermanent yet we are trapped by our continuous desire and expectation for long term happiness. When we turn our mind in, we discover an inner balance undisturbed by anger, attachment and ignorance. When the mind completely rests, natural great peace spontaneously arises like the meeting of mother and child.

National Five-Day Dzogchen Retreat: Circle of the 12 Links of Interdependent Cooperation

Life and death are interdependent but we suffer by resisting this natural cycle. Our mind is the creator of all that exists, causing the endless circle of karmic existence and separating us from our true nature. During this Dzogchen retreat His Eminence will explain that by understanding the interconnected nature of physical form we can go to the root of our suffering. When we are free from the development of the 12 links of interdependent cooperation we can live and die peacefully.
