E-book?

It will be out sometime next year.

Does physical copy bless house better? Can anyone read it?

E-book?

They celebrate parinirvana of Hsuan Hua and call him Bodhisattva.

Vajrasattva practice can lead to liberation.

Can lead or will lead?

If having a human birth with the freedoms and advantages

If preliminary practices stress you, then you should probably NOT be practicing Vajrayana.

What should we do in this case? Having received empowerments already. Can Vajrasattva take me to the Pure Land?

Thanks. So the very first session ended with the lung, right?

Yep, that's right.

I didn't get whole lung. I missed beginning of lung. I got only ending of lung.

My point is that no one has any cause to complain. Good point. And as more than one Vajrayana Lama has said, "Vajrayana is not a democracy." There are Dharma paths where the consensus of the group is key and there are those others. To each their own desire. Vajrayāna is also not socialist. Vajrayān...

Do you think we wouldn't be better off if Shakyamuni Buddha were still physically present with us today? Or if Guru Rinpoche was still physically present with us?

Nope, because we would not take impermanence to heart.

Savaripa lives until Maitreya comes.

According to ChNN, sems sde must be practiced in conjunction with regular creation and completion stage, that is the point I am making. Sems de, unlike man ngag sde, is not an independent system of practice. Why is that so that it has to be paired with creation and completion stage? One cannot atta...

Thus means you think you have no samaya. But if you have samaya, you have a guru since former is dependent on the latter.

All these years I thought guru is dependent on samaya.

Tenma, I'm going to send you the sutras via regular email so as not to hijack this thread.

Could you send sutras to me also, please?

That's why training in mindfulness is so critically important. I am not sure whether some action is downfall or not. Example, not liking everyone. You dont have to like everyone. You just cant abandon them to suffering in samsara. There are good sources for understanding the precepts etc. that you ...
