Podcasts about dharmadhatu

ADZG 1039 ADZG Sunday Morning Dharma Talk by Taigen Dan Leighton

For this investigation of the question, "what is a Buddha?" we will look into the Sutras and Shastras, or the words of the Buddha and the commentaries from his disciples, to find definitive answers for our own well-fare and the well-fare of others.  We look into the Avatamsaka Sutra with commentary by Master Hsuan Hua, the Vimalakirit Sutra, the Amitabha Sutra, Master Nagarjuna's Prajanaparamita Shastra and Dharmadhatu stava with commentary by Ranjung Dorje, The Uttaratantra Shastra by Maitreya with commentary by Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Taye, Dignaga's Pramanasamuccaya with commentary by Geshe Kelsang Wangmo, Bodhidharma's Bloodstream Sermon, the Platform Sutra with commentary by Master Hsuan Hua, Kobodaishi Kukai's The Meaning of Becoming Buddha in This Very Body, Dogen's Shobogenzo, the 100,000 Songs of Milarepa, and Longchenpa's Finding Rest in the Nature of Mind with his own auto-commentary. Buddhaversepodcast.cominstagram.com/harddrive

Welcome to the Backyard Buddhist Podcast where we continually seek everyday enlightenment for the benefit of ourselves and all other beings.  I am Ronn Pawo McLane The great Yogi Milarepa sang: “My Body is the holy mandala itself wherein resides the Buddhas of all times.  With their blessings I and freed from all needs and attachments.  By day and night, I offer them up; Happy am I to do without material things. Knowing that all beings in the six realms of samsara are inherently Buddhas, and all the three worlds-the self-creating measureless (Trikaya) palace. Whatever I do is the play of the Dharmadhatu (ultimate reality); Whoever I'm with is the Yidam Deity; Wherever I stay is the Buddha's abode. Happy am I to forego outer supports, rituals and symbols!” This teaching reminds me that enough is enough and I have everything that I need to access peace and calm in my experience whenever I need it.

Mopua patches in halfway through and we come to some powerful realizations. Exploring the void, abhinivesa (fear of death, clinging to life), self care vs. productivity, karma, dharma, Dharmadhatu and more. We are not alone. We are always interconnected. We have just forgotten, but we can remember. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/convergenceyogaforecast/support

Dharmadhatu, Po, the Underworld, Purusa, the womb. Some of us are able and interested in diving into these realms. Liberate the darkness from the closets of your hearts. Establish a connection to the inner light which is your birthright. Cultivate your connection to self, community, nature and being with me on a very special retreat here on the Big Island of Hawai'i from April 16-23, 2020. There are only 2 spots left so contact me soon! Art by Michele Kenney "Black Nightshade" --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/convergenceyogaforecast/support

Sokuzan’s talk is inspired by a verse from “In Praise of Dharmadhatu” by Nagarjuna: “Enlightenment is neither near nor far, it does not go away or come to you, right there within the cage of your afflictions, either you’ll see it, or you will not.” Contemplate that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8cERy5ex3s&t=743s

Bowing is a quick entrance into the Kingdom of God, or the Dharmadhatu.

Podcast del 20º programa de la 14ª Temporada del “De Què Parlem?”. Esta semana en el DQP hemos recuperado un homenaje que Eva Fernández hizo a su hermano hace exactamente un año, todo dentro de un especial donde se abordó un tema delicado y a la vez, desconocido: el buen morir. En el programa escucharemos a Basili Llorca, presidente de la Asociación Dharmadhatu de Barcelona, y aBruno Rizzi, enfermero del Christophorus Hospiz de Munich. Bruno nos ha hablado sobre la importancia de un buen morir, de cómo llevar el luto y como entender y aceptar la pérdida de un ser querido. Además, nos ha explicado un nuevo concepto de hospitales. La traducción del italiano al español ha sido por cortesía de Basili. Por otro lado, también conocimos a Carol Mateos, terapeuta y miembro de la Asociación Agartam, quién ha abordado el tema de la muerte desde un tema más espiritual, explicándonos qué es Ánima y un círculo de sanación. + info www.dequeparlem.net

Ya puedes volver a escuchar el 22º programa de la 13ª Temporada del "De Què Parlem?". Esta semana en el “De Què Parlem” hemos estado de reflexión. No creemos en los tabúes, y es por eso que este miércoles hemos abordado un tema delicado y a la vez, desconocido: el buen morir. Hemos hablado con Basili Llorca, presidente de la Asociación Dharmadhatu de Barcelona, y con Bruno Rizzi, enfermero del Christophorus Hospiz de Munich. Bruno nos ha hablado sobre la importancia de un buen morir, de cómo llevar el luto y como entender y aceptar la pérdida de un ser querido. Además, nos ha explicado un nuevo concepto de hospitales.

Por otro lado, también hemos conocido a Carol Mateos, terapeuta y miembro de la Asociación Agartam, quién ha abordado el tema de la muerte desde un tema más espiritual, explicándonos qué es Ánima y un círculo de sanación. Todo ello ha formado parte de un homenaje que Eva Fernández ha querido hacer a su hermano Carlos, quién nos dejó hace un año. Nos escuchamos de nuevo la próxima semana, el miércoles de 20 a 21h aquí, en Ràdio Nova (Vilanova del Camí, Barcelona. Equipo de la semana: Basili Llorca, Bruno Rizzi, Carol Mateos, Eva Fernández (y su familia) y Aitor Bernal.

In today’s session Alan talks about the importance of purification and accruing merit in order to proceed quickly along the path. The Sanskrit term for merit is punya, and it literally means power. It is that which propels you along the path. And if you want merit to really flow, then think about what Atisha said about the ability to accumulate merit once you have achieved shamatha. Another way to supercharge your merit according to the Buddha is by concentration on suchness, which means emptiness. And finally, when you develop bodhicitta you accrue merit, and once you are on the level of engaged bodhicitta it will just be an ongoing flow of merit no matter what you do. That’s for accumulating merit. And how to purify? Well, how about shamatha, insight into emptiness and bodhicitta? If you might think that all this emptiness and Dzogchen stuff is just too way up for you, you can’t really do this, then this is one of the three types of laziness, the laziness of putting oneself down. So no excuses, especially since Alan lists the remedies for all three types of laziness! The realizations e.g. of emptiness don’t appear out of the blue, they come from hearing, reading, trying to figure it out, meditating about it, and sooner or later a true understanding will arise. This will still come and go, so you need shamatha to stabilize it, and to get so familiar with it that it becomes the natural way of viewing reality. After the meditation we return to Natural Liberation, continuing from yesterday’s topic of viewing hatred from the perspective of rigpa. Alan gives an advice that he himself has received from Gyatrul Rinpoche when anger comes up in the mind: Don’t be troubled, just look at it and try to trace it back to its roots. The same can be done for the other poisons; craving and delusion. You can trace them back to their relative origin, which is substrate consciousness, and from that perspective all three poisons are nothing other than luminosity, bliss and non-conceptuality. But here in Padmasambhava’s text they are seen not from the perspective of substrate consciousness, but from the perspective of rigpa, and that means that they are nothing other than the three aspects of primordial consciousness: mirror-like, discerning and Dharmadhatu. Padmasambhava states that from the perspective of rigpa hatred never comes into being, is empty of location, and doesn’t go anywhere. Which means, you can’t even lose it. If an Arhat thinks that he has cut hatred at its root, that isn’t really true. You just reduce it back to where it comes from, or better to say, it releases itself if you can rest in rigpa.
