Description

In Transforming Problems Into Happiness, Lama Zopa Rinpoche brings his own special flavor and contemporary relevance to a timeless teaching on Buddhist psychology. Zab mo'i gter dang gter ston grub thob ji ltar byon pa'i lo rgyus mdor bsdus bkod pa rin chen baiDUr+Ya'i phreng ba las sangs rgyas gnyis pa pad+ma 'byung gnas. With great care, he explains what to do in the months, weeks, and days before death, how to handle the moment itself, what to do after the breath has stopped, and finally, what to do after the mind has left the body. The clarity, warmth, and vibrancy of Lama Migmar’s writing combined with the comprehensiveness and detail of his presentations of key Buddhist teachings make this book a valuable resource for a range of readers, from beginners to more advanced practitioners seeking to deepen their practice. In view of the absolute purity which equals the Plane of Essence itself, he was invested in the tenth stage with the power of the Dharma.

In addition to relating stories of people who have recovered from disease through meditation, Lama Zopa presents practical healing meditations, including white-light healing, compassion meditation, “taking and giving”, and techniques to cure depression. Together they practised glorious Śrī Heruka, but were hindered by spirits, rākṣasas and magical creatures' intent on creating obstacles — causing a three year drought and, with it, famine and disease. When one is successful, the reward proceeds from within, so leave the purpose of others alone and pursue your own.They seated Padmākara on a throne of precious jewels, and all the while the citizens were delighted by the rain of foods, clothing, and precious objects that sprang forth from the magic of the wish-fulfilling jewel. Padmasambhava founded Tibetan Buddhism, inspiring the most spiritually advanced culture the world has ever known. Originally published in 1976, Wisdom Energy still preserves the power, humor, and directness of the lamas’s first teaching tour of North America, giving the reader the feeling of an intimate audience with two highly respected teachers.

Another story tells how the King of Turkestan had sent invading armies to the kingdom of Kaccha, where Buddhist groups were thriving. The Guru went on to defeat some powerful heretic kings who were damaging the Buddhist doctrine, making use of a variety of skilful means, including ejecting their consciousnesses.

However, little is known about the actual historical figure other than his ties to Vajrayana and Indian Buddhism. Commenting on an early-twentieth-century Tibetan text of instructions and practical advice for everyday spiritual living, Lama Zopa Rinpoche teaches us how to be happy during hard times by adopting skillful attitudes—ways of interpreting reality that can permit us to live a joyful and relaxed life regardless of circumstance. Its full title is The Sūtra Teaching the Miracles in the Domain of Skillful Means that the Bodhisattvas Have at their Disposition ( Bodhisattva­gocaropāyaviṣayavikurvita­nirdeśasūtra, byang sems spyod yul thabs kyi yul la rnam 'phrul bstan pa'i mdo).

and Padmasambhava, together with the other Indian scholars, and with Vairocana, Kawa Paltsek, Chokro Lu’i Gyaltsen, Shang Yeshé Dé and the other translators, then rendered into Tibetan all the extant Buddhist scriptures of sūtra and tantra, as well as most of the treatises explaining them.The volume will appeal to all readers interested in the Dalai Lama’s works, both those new to Buddhism and those looking to deepen their understanding of the Tibetan presentation of the Buddhist path. But, as Rinpoche points out, it is not only for people who work with the dying; it is education we all need. Anne Klein’s original composition masterfully weaves in Adzom Paylo Rinpoche’s commentary and Jigme Lingpa’s five pith practices and commentary on the trainings, in keeping with Longchenpa’s skillful integration of sutra, tantra, and Dzogchen, to resolve our most challenging questions about what awakening involves and how it relates to the truth of our human situation right now. There were also those of the blood lines of Lang, Ngok, Khon, Rok, Go, Pang, So, Zur, Nub, Gyu, Kyo — many of which continue to the present day.
