Nalandabodhi is a worldwide community of practitioners offering the timeless wisdom and boundless compassion of the Buddha to inspire individuals and create kind communities in today’s world, under the guidance of Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche.
Canadian sangha member Patti Fraser writes about being with a grieving friend, “To act skillfully is to drop the idea of skillful action as a set of preordained behaviours. I let go of thoughts of how to be useful, or help, or prevent suffering. In their stead, I tried to be just present.”
How do we work with our emotions, relationships, annoyances, and challenges to act for the benefit of the world? Join Acharya Lama Tenpa Gyaltsen for a four-part commentary on the Eight Verses for Training the Mind.
“This mind now is the dharma we have been looking for. Practicing the dharma means working with present appearances. Working with this mind now.”
