I’ve always said that if I was born earlier, I would most probably join the hippie movement in America. I’ve always liked how free-spirited the hippies were, how they embraced nature, and how they lived their lives undisturbed by the rush for money, power and fame. I like how they lived their lives in...

(By Tsem Rinpoche) In life after life since the time of the historical Buddha you have incarnated in a string of scholars, masters and yogis with the express wish to liberate others from sufferings. Your many emanations and incarnations are both seen and unseen. Common and uncommon in Dharmakhaya, Sambhogakhaya and Nirmanakaya forms...

Transcript (edited): In October or November of 1987, around that time, I arrived in New Delhi from the United States. I was 22 years old and I had never been to India so it was a mighty culture shock for me in all aspects of that word. Anyway, I arrived in Delhi and...

I lived in a family that was Mongolian and my Mongolian stepmother in Howell, New Jersey was very religious and at the same time, extremely superstitious. Every Mongolian household in Howell – and there were a couple of hundred of us – would have a Buddhist shrine room or shrine area in their homes. That means...

(By Tsem Rinpoche) Dear friends around the world, I found this to be interesting. Obviously people have had attachments to the body which causes us to take up actions that bind us for a lifetime pulling us away sometimes from higher spiritual attainments. We think we can do something for a while, but it...

(By Tsem Rinpoche) When Buddhas give teachings, it is specifically to benefit the listener. When the listener applies the teachings of the Buddhas and becomes enlightened, that person becomes another Buddha, and that person may teach others and so on. Therefore the number of Buddhas in existence is limitless, and the number of...

All sentient beings deserve the right to lead peaceful lives, in which they are not exploited for another’s benefit or entertainment. Unfortunately, beings in the animal kingdom have often been the victims of such exploitation… from being skinned alive for their fur, to being the subject of experiments, slaughtered for food, and even tortured...

(By Tsem Rinpoche) Dear students and friends, Many years ago, I spoke briefly about Wealth Vases and Wealth Boxes (Wealth Cabinets or Yangkham), and at that time I mentioned that we will create a Wealth Box in the future… Now, the time has come for us to make a Wealth Box in our beautiful...

Dear friends, I found this interesting. I do not endorse nor am I against this. This is simply news and I thought I would share. The more friendly China is with the Tibetan leaders they perceive as leaders will make Tibetans achieve what they want. Tsem Rinpoche President Xi expects Panchen Lama...

(By Tsem Rinpoche) Everything in life has false dualistic views. If we choose to enter the door of dualism, then we get hurt, disappointed, and bitter in the end. If we choose a better doorway which is emptiness, then the door leads seemingly nowhere yet everywhere. Emptiness of dualism. Whatever we choose, everything ends in death...
