Whenever ego suffers from fear of death & your practice turns to seeing impermanence, ego settles down.
Tsoknyi RinpocheWe believe deep down that we've lost something precious and are seeking it outside ourselves, never realizing that we are carrying it within us wherever we go.
Tsoknyi RinpocheYou don't have to say anything. You don't have to teach anything. You just have to be who you are: a bright flame shining in the darkness of despair, a shining example of a person able to cross bridges by opening your heart and mind.
Tsoknyi RinpocheTrue compassion is undirected & holds no conceptual focus. That kind of genuine, true compassion is only possible after realizing emptiness.
