Yes, you can read. Even before receiving, you can read it for academic purpose but you can’t practice it. This is wrong. Nowhere in Buddhadharma is it explained that you can read for "academic purposes". The thing is, academics don't give a damn about what Buddhadharma says, because they use the ex...

My point being, if you (we, me) are not willing to risk everything on the Vajrayana path, maybe you/we/me should not follow this path. As I’ve said elsewhere, maybe Vajrayana should not be taught to Westerners. Just a thought. Since you've said a number of times now that you don't practice Vajrayan...

This is a practice that you definitely need empowerment and transmission for.

How intense is this practice? I found a group of ChNN'S followers in Texas that are able to transmit the practice, but before I make a decision of taking up this practice, how intense is it? Would this be a wise practice to take up for a 15 year old busy with school work and studies? Is there a dai...

Amazing run by England. I thought they would of gotten knocked out in the earlier rounds. France will now defeat Croatia.

Please God. Please. If you exist, Coatia will win.

You're on the wrong forum for that kind of prayer...

They also had public condemnation of their actions from lineage masters. There is a telling passage in Compassionate Action that is pretty clearly an example of this. "There was an incident a few years ago where a photograph of a late lama was placed in Rinpoche's room (most likely by some disciple...

Is kunzang dorje rinpoche still alive? if so where does he live? nepal? sikkim?

Unfortunately not. He passed in 2010. His residence was in Saraswati Bhawan, Nepal.

Not Brits Wayfarer..English. :smile: The Scots Northern Irish and Welsh have their own teams..which did not qualify for this tournament. Correct.

No, what is the difference if I may ask? /magnus CT and his successors had public support endorsements from the heads of Kagyu and Nyingma. Moreover, they abused alcohol. They couldn't even keep the precepts... what about the vows and samayas? The lama linked above just had some affairs with some s...

Did Shakyamuni Buddha speak Tibetan? No, but this question is asked in the context of Buddhadharma as taught in the Indo-Tibetan traditions. That means Sanskrit and Tibetan, because those are the primary languages in which these teachings are taught in. Primarily Tibetan, considering the state of S...

I see potential benefit in integrating Dzogchen with my existing practices. Assuming ChNN goes ahead with his next Worldwide Transmission -- which I've been told takes place on July 21, 2018, from 8 pm to 9 pm PT -- there's a good chance I'll be around to receive it. For my sake: Are there any text...

Going into solitary retreat is the better option for single Dzogchen practitioners, if they have the means to do so, and are capable of doing so.

The development of the F-35 program has cost $406.5 billion to date and each one is gonna cost like $120 million and they're gonna build like 1700 of them. I don't know if this is including the totally rad helmet mounted HUD costs $400,000 a pop and doesn't work. Gutting that would free up a ton of...

Last night Sean Hannity (Fox News contributor) said, “many are hailing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as a rising star on the political landscape but in reality, her views, her policy positions, are actually downright scary.” And then showed a graphic outlining her platform: “Medicare For All” “Housing A...

When I say football, I mean that thing you Americans refer to as "soccer"...

Yes, broken down it is:

foot - played with the feet
ball - a round object

As opposed to American "football":

hand - played with the hands
egg - an ovoid object

Correct.

First match: Disappointed that it had to be Mexico vs. Brazil because I like both, but Brazil has been my team since 1990 so yeah, sorry Mexico, you had to go. Second match: Went into it expecting Belgium to roll over Japan, instead Japan dominated Belgium and almost won - because that definitely wa...
