Satisfied Buddhist - Domo Geshe Rinpoche

Like a song that is forever singing beginning to end and end to beginning simultaneously, the Great Path that stimulates awakening exists simultaneously but in time and space becomes linear.~ Domo Geshe Rinpoche ~~ ***** "Wie ein Lied, das auf ewig von Anfang bis Ende und gleichzeitig von Ende bis Anfang erklingt, existiert der Große Pfad, welcher zum Erwachen anregt, auf simultane Weise; jedoch wird er linear durch Zeit und Raum.! - Domo Geshe Rinpoche --- We experience weather in a purely perceptual way as well as knowing that our body senses are influenced by the changing outer environment. However, the physical senses expect that temperature, barometric pressure, sunlight etc will remain fairly constant or they will send alerting signals. "Hot, hot, hot" means, take action now to cool off. This signal is not activated by temperature, only the cha nge in temperature; 60 degrees in June feels cold but 60 degrees in January might feel hot! For many folks, when th...

Both politics and religion are nothing unless they can get adherents. Most of politics shares the same methods that have become religions abuses: fear tactics, competition for authority and status, mindless rhetoric and dogma as well as secret maneuverings for power. I vote for real separation of state and religion by using different agendas! State should focus on fairness in its dealings with its citizen owners based on the altruistic mandates of the founders. Religion sho uld focus on the awakening process by sincerely sharing the teachings of their founder. ~ Domo Geshe Rinpoche ~~~~ "Sowohl Politik wie auch Religion sind nichts ohne ihre Anhänger. Ein Großteil der Politik benutzt dieselben Methoden, die in der Religion zu Missbrauch führen: Angsttaktiken, Autoritätskämpfe und Status, gedankenlose Rhetorik und Dogma, sowie heimliche Manöver, um an die Macht zu kommen. Ich stimme für eine echte Trennung von Staat und Religion durch die Verfolgung verschiedener...

The health of a child and the health of an adult are two very different karmic dynamics, in my opinion. You are now mainly a product of your life you have lived so far, with health repercussions from earlier activities, whereas a child's health is often a karmic product of their previous life. To achieve optimum wellness, we must achieve a health balance that will not be a repetition of the past; the past is where our illnesses came from! We want to be fresh and new... free from earlier traumas. Therefore, we should not desire to return to health, but to go forward into health! ~Domo Geshe Rinpoche ~~~ ""Meiner Meinung nach beruhen die Gesundheit eines Kindes und eines Erwachsenen auf einer unterschiedlichen Dynamik. Du bist jetzt hauptsächlich das Produkt des Lebens, das Du bis heute gelebt hast, einschließlich Auswirkungen auf Deine Gesundheit, die von früheren Handlungen herrühren; während die Gesundheit eines Kindes oft ein karmisches Produkt seines früheren Lebens is...

We plan for the future because we anticipate being there, isn’t that so? That means we have a responsibility for taking care of our health. Twenty or thirty years ago, people did not have as much information, opportunity or support from others to be working on their own health care program as we do today. Now, nearly everyone feels that it is a duty, taking care of him or herself through exercise, proper diet, vitamins and more. If you want to live a long life and take charge of your life without taking charge of your own health, something is missing. Looking for a mate With a logical, proactive approach toward the rest of your life, if you are like most people, you begin looking for a life partner. Before that however, you might think about what qualities you are looking for and judge potential mates by how closely they match that model. As usual, when they do not match, but you want them anyway, I suppose people figure they can just fix them up afterward. Nevertheless, it is g...

Do you have less love energy that you need flowing freely in your body and mind? What would it be like to feel love energy from the bottom of your feet to the top of your head, fingers, elbows, even behind the ears, a free flowing love that's everything that you need? This circulation of love energy is absolutely vital for your health. It's not just a nicety if we had enough love,we can't be healthy without it. From a Tibetan Buddhist point of view, writing about love energy makes me feel a bit weird.  However, I set aside my own personal views  because I know that this is something needed for good health although we addressed it in a different way. If we lived in a perfect society where, for example,  a family unit that had 20 or 30  members, you would  interact with others, and feel connected, loved and have a support system. In our Tibetan society, whether in a monastery or a family unit, we always felt that there was enough of this everywhere; we nev...
