Guest Guest Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 MaterialismMaterialism leads to 3 different kinds of suffering:1. First when we see what other people have and we don’t, we suffer.2. Then when we try to get it and cannot, we suffer.3. At last, when we come to know that we won’t be able to get it , we suffer.The real problem is our expectations, not the material things themselves.Materialism is the attachment; the idea that happiness is found outside.“Naropa my son, it is not appearances that cause our suffering, it is ourattachment to appearances.” … Tilopa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Exhausting desireIt is better to spend desire than money, exhaust desire rather than money.We work, work, work to make money, money, money. Then we see commercial,commercial, commercial and we spend our money, money, money. In the end weare broke, we have exhausted all our money, but our desire is still as strong.We are not satisfied, we are not happy. It is so painful.Better spend desire than money.

Guest Guest Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Gays and Lesbians are welcome in my worldIn a lot of religions in this world, gays and lesbians are not accepted… from my point of view,and I would say from a Buddhist point of view, gay and lesbian are welcome in my world. I’mhappy to see how they love and take responsibility for each other and for their family.Buddha never said to be gay is not good; to be lesbian is not good.Buddha only cares about your happiness. God only cares for your happiness. If they do notcare about your happiness, what are they talking about? What is their point?So don’t be sad, don’t be unhappy if you are gay or lesbian.In a relationship, it is appreciation of the other that is most important. This is the quality thatwill bring you happiness… whether you are heterosexual, gay or lesbian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted April 29, 2012 Report Share Posted April 29, 2012 JudgingThe Buddha doesn’t judge us. He gives us great teaching but never judges us.So we have no right to judge others.The meaning of judgment is useful in law and government, but not in a spiritual way…I don’t judge you. You are free to make your own decisions and do what you want in your life.Just don’t hurt others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Just take a break"We need to take a break from complaining.

Guest Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Clear mind, open heartOnce our mind is fully relaxed and clear, with one word we can understand tendifferent meanings or ten levels or kinds of meaning.If our mind is busy it remains confused even if we hear the same teaching ten times.We will not understand even one meaning.We need to have a clear mind and an open heart.

Guest Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 The key to happinessEverything is in you, in your heart. Buddha is in your heart. Enlightenment is in your heart.They are not found anywhere else. But at the moment they are locked up.We need the key to unlock these qualities.We need to know how to unlock this box.The key is the Dharma; the key to Dharma is practice; and the key to practice is the root guruwho will help us open the box of the qualities that are nowhere else but within our heart.

Guest Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 EnlightenmentThis is the main point of all religions in the world.The meaning of religion is to recognize ourselves, recognize the best in ourselves,recognize our spiritual side.It is about learning to be happy: not running after happiness, but being happy.

Guest Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Talking about compassionTalking about compassion is easy. Being compassionate is difficult.Compassion means acting compassionately when the moment requires it,not just talking about compassion whether the situation requires it or not.

Guest Guest Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Language of the HeartI think it is good for students to practice in their own language. And to practice with their heart.The buddhas and bodhisattvas do not speak one specific language.They speak the language of love, the language of the heart.To practice Dharma, practice from your heart. When your heart speaks, that’s the true language,making a connection with truth. The language of the heart is the language of truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 About RelationshipsIf you are happy and in love it is good.If you are confused and weak, then being with someone else is not so helpful.Have confidence in yourself. Then you can love and be happy. If you cannotgive happiness to yourself how can you give happiness to another?The meaning of love is pure understanding, pure care, it is not about a weakor confused or attached relationship.
