There are wonderful beings in this world.

From a Buddhist point of view, the first thing to help is yourself, to get your own mind together. And to really understand how to benefit beings, not just on the physical level, but on all levels. Then there are endless beings you can benefit.

Until time and space exist... I vow to come back for the benefit of other beings.

Don't be thinking that this lama over there is giving better teachings or that this lama over here is giving more secret initiations. Leave that. Just keep the practice very simple, try to stay in the moment and try to stay mindful.

We're always given the message that our potential is so limited, which is so sad. Actually, our potential is infinite.

Still all the tulkus being born are men.

I think the problem with Western students is they're very ambitious.
