The Year of the Male Wood Dragon – Losar February 10, 2024
The period starting from the first day
until fifteenth day of this lunar month
is known as Chotrul Duchen,
commemorating the event when Buddha Shakyamuni
performed a different miracle each day
to instill devotion and increase merit.
Why meditate?
Troubled by emotions, suffering and anxiety we look for an escape, an exit, a liberation from that.
What is causing that distress is our mind.
Why not having a closer look?
Why not meditate?
Studying the basics? Too easy for me?
Rinpoche opened the first cycle in 2005, the second in 2007 and a while later, in 2011, the third cycle.
There were no right conditions to open any new cycles until now. Don’t miss the chance.
This is a Fortunate Time
Wisdom Quotes to Inspire Your Day
This is a fortunate time. We have obtained a human life, which is the basis. We have met a spiritual guide, which is the condition. And we have received his instructions, which are the means. If we cannot enter the profound path to liberation during this lifetime, our life will be meaningless and we will get nothing out of it. Not only that, but it is also possible that we will create the causes of wandering in the inferior states.
