Re: Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro :: Book on Vegetarianism
KTL spoke there last week, so I assume that is what is being referred to. Ah! I had no idea... I would have loved to attend that. He's been up in my neck of the woods for the past week and I've seen him speak several times, including just last night at Anam Thubten's place in Point Richmond. You ca...

Re: Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro :: Book on Vegetarianism
You can read his thesis here: https://scholar.colorado.edu/geog_gradetds/27/ if you are interested. Are you saying that this was written by Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro? No, I am saying that it was written by the person who wrote the article, Gaerrang (Kabzung). Oh, so the original article I linked was no...

Re: Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro :: Book on Vegetarianism
I would be surprised if it had been translated. After looking at this article's bibliography: https://journals.openedition.org/emscat/2755 I think the title in Tibetan is: "sha’i kha zas gnag bkag gi bslab bya blang bor gsal ba’i me long" Ah, I suspected that might be the case. Thanks, Dzogchungpa!

Why Vegetarian?
Does anyone know where I can find this book (in English)?Khenpo Tsultrim Lodro wrote:Years ago, I wrote a book about the merit of being vegetarian and the faults of eating meat or being non-vegetarian.

Re: Vegetarian Diet Recommendations
Humans are not "naturally" anything when it comes to diet. Our diet is based on availability and ability. I would never say to somebody living in an environment where there is a lack of vegetables for consumption, or have health problems that require eating meat, to stop eating meat and/or other an...

Re: Great Transference question

It's not like it violates the law of cause and effect, it just goes completely beyond it. In general, the teachings in various yanas don't contradict each other. There's a n...

Re: Solo Retreat
Individual retreats are usually like finishing school. Most of the lamas did not start with individual retreat. Ah, I see. This definitely makes sense. Thanks! If you can't do serious group retreat then do individual retreat. I don't have the time to do serious group or individual retreat any time,...

Re: Solo Retreat
Deeper experiences of concentration generally occur in group settings rather than individual settings (although this is not always the case either). Outside of enlightenment, saving life or outstanding dharma teaching, sesshin is an unparalleled practice. For some reason I thought the original post...

Re: Not been feeling like attending dharma events
I am really curious about those who establish some kind of close relationship with a lama living near them -- did you go to all the regular pujas and so on before they started to accept you and teach you? No but... My teacher started guiding me closely just because I was showing up to his ngondro c...

Re: Not been feeling like attending dharma events
So another confirmation ..every valley a Lama. Every Lama a dharma. :smile: Which figures. Do we expect uniformity? I'm not sure if it's such a sharp contrast in opinions between Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche and Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche on this topic. My impression from your quote from Trungpa Rinpoche ...

Re: Solo Retreat
I think what I usually hear is"Zazenkai". Although that could be a few days, but it's shorter than a sesshin.
