Mini Mindfulness Break for May 07, 2021

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Karma and Individual Responsibility

By believing that we can actually change our karmic circumstances, we can pray for others, purify negativity, and create positive karma with the intention of attaining enlightenment. Instead of trying to change our outer circumstances, we will understand that it is more meaningful to change our own phenomena.

– Thinley Rinpoche, “Continuous Mind “

Dear *[FNAME]*:
Rest in natural great peace
This exhausted mind
Beaten helpless by karma and neurotic thought
Like the relentless fury of the pounding waves
In the infinite ocean of samsara.
Rest in natural great peace.

– Nyoshul Khenpo Rinpoche

Practicing With Loss

Loss is a fact of life. Impermanence is everywhere we look. We are all going to suffer our losses. How we deal with these losses is what makes all the difference. For it is not what happens to us that determines our character, our experience, our karma, and our destiny, but how we relate to what happens.

A Tulku’s Take on Nirvana

The essence of our consciousness is already love and wisdom. Karma, concepts, and emotional patterns are only temporarily preventing our consciousness from unfolding its enlightened nature.

Mini Mindfulness Break for April 17, 2019

Awakening to Ourselves

Buddhism is really about awakening from the illusion about ourselves and the world, and realizing reality–who we are and what is real and how things are interconnected through karma and causation and so on. In a Dzogchen text it says, “From the beginning we are all Buddhas by nature, we only have to realize that fact.” So in Dzogchen the whole practice of what we call the view, meditation, and action is about awakening to–not just our momentary personality–“self” with a small s–but our true Buddha nature, our original nature.

– Lama Surya Das, “Old Wine, New Bottles”

May you be free from suffering and the causes of suffering!
