Guest guest Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Lama Jigme Gyatso: Rime Manipa Tantrika Thursday the 9th of November, 2006 Love and Relax I was recently asked: “Hi Lama Jigme Gyatso, I hope to attend a Green Tara initiation this Sunday, any thoughts?” Dear Mr. L, Remember NOT to get overwhelmed during the explanation of the Sadhana's yogas. A great teacher once said that man was not created for the Sabbath but that the Sabbath was created for man. Likewise the goal of Tantra is not to visualize perfectly. Perfect visualization may OR may NOT come. What then, is the goal of Tantra? To transcend grasping and it's causes! Patrul Rinpoche taught: " ...one Dharma, Bodhichitta, embodies ALL the practices of the development and completion stages... So all the Yogas of Tantra are merely tools for developing: Devotion, Peace, Insight, Compassion, Joy and Bliss… and Devotion, Peace, Joy and Bliss are merely tools for developing Compassion and Insight. We recite mantra NOT for mere accumulation but to " Tune-into " the Yidam who already dwells within, as our Buddha-nature. So, in essence my friend: Love and Relax! May Chen-re-zig, the Buddha of Compassion lavish you with Love and Light and Laughter! Om Mani Padme Hum, Lama Jigme Gyatso: Rime Manipa Tantrika Everyone is raving about the all-new Mail beta.
