Developing a warm, stable heart and feeling close to all beings creates lasting peace and fulfills all wishes.

The best solution to our daily problems is to learn to cherish others. There is no valid reason for thinking we are more important than others, in this podcast Gen-la looks at why we have resistance to letting go of this view.

Whether an object is virtuous or non-virtuous depends on our position. This means that whether someone makes us happy or not depends on the position we take with respect to that person.

Gen-la Jampa gives advice to help us remember emptiness during the day, this is very important if we want to improve our Tantric practice out of meditation.

Through understanding that things exist through being imputed by mind we can understand how it is possible to transform ourself from the state of an ordinary being to that of a pure enlightened being.

When we wake from our dreams we understand that everything we experienced was just an appearance to our dreaming mind. Buddha said you should know that all phenomena are like dreams.

The purpose of practicing spiritual teachings is to improve our mind. What does it mean to improve our mind? It means to improve our compassion and wisdom.

Determinations take us in a particular direction in life so they can empower us to change.

Gen-la Khyenrab explains the importance of prayers in preparing our mind to properly listen to, understand and apply Buddha’s teachings in daily life.

Through receiving the wisdom blessings of the Dharma Protector we can transform appearances of adversity into realizations of renunciation, compassion and wisdom.
