Thank you Malcolm.Malcolm wrote:javadm wrote:dears,

All mantras require a lung.

There are also other Vajrasattva practices in DC related to the inner rushans. Practicing a non DC-Specific Vajrasattva should yield the same effect though (Purification, restoration of Samaya etc) since you tend to recite it more times in a stand alone practice than in a collective Ganapuja. Today is also the day of Buddha's birth so Ganapujas encouraged.Johnny Dangerous wrote:Thanks.Mantrik wrote:It's in the Medium Ganapuja in the Thun Book, page 131.

Well great books are Guruyoga book, Practice in Daily Life and Precious Vase.TaTa wrote:I am deeply inspired by two teachers. One is more karma kagyu oriented but also teacheas dzogchen and the other is namkhai norbu. Im finnishing my kagyu ngondro and i wanted to get more into namkhai norbu's teaching and practices. Till now i have been practicing ati guru yoga and song of vajra to complement my ngondro as chnn told me.
The question is what are the must reads and usually what are the practices one should start with?
Thanks
Due to Rinpoche's health, his trip and teachings to Reunion Island had to be cancelled...鐵觀音 wrote:Will tomorrow's Reunion Island retreat have a webcast?
I am still hoping Rinpoche will recover soon -- and the Merigar retreat will take place.We deeply regret having to announce the cancellation of the teaching retreat of Chögyal Namkhai Norbu in Paris from June 9 to 11, 2017. Rinpoche's final decision came to us this morning, June 5th.
Up until the last minute, Rinpoche hoped to be able to come, but his state of health isn't good enough yet to travel.
To get "everything i need" to inmerse myself in deep practice of rusheb, semdzins and lojongs plus kbowibg how to correctly perform tuns and ganapujas should i get?PuerAzaelis wrote:Refuge and bodhichitta, short thun in the mornings and evenings. The three anniversary DIs. White A. Song of Vajra. Rushens, semdzins, lojongs. Dream practice...
All I can manage at the moment. Wish there were less obligations and more time, but such is life.
I suspect it becomes an art rather than a science ...
PS: and prayers for Rinpoche's improved health.
Thank you, florin.

And even better, Chogyal Namkhai Norbu really is an awakened master.
I remember you wrote on E-sangha that although in general you are sceptical about tulku system you think that Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche really is a tulku of Adzom Drukpa. I never had a chance to ask what make you think so. Could you please write something more?

Oh, it is simple. Norbu RInpoche wrote a long commentary when he was younger. Later on, when he had a chance to obtain all of Adzom Drugpa's collected works, he chanced to find a text in Adzom's collected works that was for over a hundred pages identical in topic, outline and structure. Apart from minor differences in in grammar, the words are the same.
Based on that, Norbu Rinpoche himself decided that it must be true that he is the reincarnation of Adzom Drugpa.
Adzom Drugpa was the most important Dzogchen Guru of the early twentieth century for many reasons, not least of which he was the main Dzogchen disciple of Khyentse Wangpo. Chogyal Namkhai Norbu is the most important Dzogchen master alive today. Of course, there are many Dzogchen masters, and to their own students, they are the most important. But in terms of service in spreading Unsurpassed Secret Treasury of Mahasaṃdhi teachings, Chogyal Namkhai Norbu is in truth the Second Vajrasattva.
