Dharma Practice

Date Posted:

Rinpoche made the following comments on turning experience into Dharma practice.

If you are happy, make it beneficial for sentient beings. If you are suffering, use it as the cause to bring happiness to others. This way, whatever kind of life experience you have, you can use it on the path. There is no interruption to Dharma practice and one’s life is most beneficial.

This Precious Life

Every second of this human life is more precious than skies of wish-granting jewels.

Rejoicing

Each time you rejoice in your own past, present, and future merits, they double and triple and you collect limitless skies of merit. Thinking about the benefits of rejoicing makes you want to practice rejoicing all day long and all night long.

Devotion and Compassion

The most important thing for success is devotion and compassion—these are the cause of harmony. These are the best puja. Compassion for others reduces problems and people will help you.

Communication

Good communication depends on how much good heart one has.
