The Tibetans are good at learning many skillful ways to show that everything we do becomes dharma practice, depending on which kind of approach we use.

We all have our own karma and so different teachers will be meaningful to different students.

In fact there are beautiful people in this world doing incredibly selfless acts over and over and over. Dedicating their lives completely for the welfare and happiness of others.

If you just follow your inner calling, then you just go ahead.

We have to transform those ordinary actions of our day into dharma practice because otherwise nothing is going to move.

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

Why are we sitting? Why are we practicing? Why are we doing anything? It's not so I can be happy. It's so I can embody the dharma in order to benefit other beings.
