Luego de sus terribles visiones, Naropa por fin encontró a su maestro, el yogui Tilopa, quien se mostraba dispuesto a arrojar luz sobre la confusión interior de su discípulo.Tilopa confortó a Naropa, explicándole que los procesos destructivos internos nacidos del enfrentamiento con uno mismo y la atenta observación de la mente propiaconstituían pasos imprescindibles en el conocimiento del ser interior. También le aclaró que gracias a ellos se lograba la extinción de las impresiones mentales indeseables, convertidas en hábitos enraizados, fuente de sufrimiento y esclavitud. Asimismo le dio las instrucciones necesarias para deshacerse de la dualidad conceptual, lo que constituye el fundamento del Tantrismo. De esta forma, Naropa adquirió la maduración de su conocimiento, hasta entonces teórico, logrando una comprensión intuitiva de los fenómenos mentales yalcanzando el más puro estado trascendente.Prestemos atención al informe …

In this 3-part series, Danadasa covers the "Three Great Turnings" of the wheel of the dharma that resulted in the Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions.In this final talk, he explores the Vajrayana tradition's emphasis on holistic self-acceptance and using all aspects of experience—including anger—as part of the spiritual path. He discusses the contrast between early Buddhism's emphasis on self-liberation, Mahayana's interconnectedness, and Vajrayana's transformative approach that integrates even difficult emotions. By reframing anger as energy that can be directed toward wisdom or compassion, Vajrayana encourages acceptance and the practice of self-love as a pathway to freedom.Danadasa also reflects on the cultural influences shaping different Buddhist practices, such as Tibetan Buddhism's devotional aspects compared to Western Buddhism's rationalist tendencies. He shares his personal journey through conflict and how Vajrayana practices helped him transform anger and grief into deeper wisdom. Central to his teaching is the idea of surrender—letting go of control and embracing impermanence, which leads to the unworldly bliss of freedom from attachment. Through cognitive dissonance and contemplative affirmations, Danadasa encourages trusting the process of transformation, fostering forgiveness, and connecting with higher wisdom.______________Danadasa (he/him) began meditating and practicing Buddhism in 1993 and was ordained in the Triratna Buddhist Order in 2011 at the San Francisco Buddhist Center. At his ordination, he received his Buddhist name Danadasa which, in Sanskrit, means “servant of generosity”. In 1995, he developed a heart connection with the archetypal Buddha Amitabha, rooted in the Japanese Pure Land tradition Jodo Shinshu (known in the Western world as Shin Buddhism), and has been practicing an Amitabha sadhana (devotional practice) since 2011.Danadasa is deeply passionate about teaching meditation, mindfulness and Buddhism in a somatic and embodied way, bringing the Buddha's teachings to life in our imaginations through images and storytelling. Embodied practice is the path of getting out of our heads and into our bodies, for it is in our bodies that liberation reveals itself.Over the past 20 years, Danadasa has held various administrative and leadership roles within the San Francisco Buddhist Center (SFBC). And in 2023, he resigned from all of his formal SFBC roles, as well as taking a break from teaching for a period of wandering in the wilderness, free from the external responsibilities, expectations and social norms of the monastery, following in the footsteps of the great “crazy wisdom” Mahasiddhas of the past. Since then, many lineage Masters and archetypal Buddhas have provided Danadasa with guidance and inspiration, including Tilopa, Naropa, Padmasambhava, Vajrakilaya, and Machig Labdron. In 2024, Danadasa received Vajrayogini initiation and empowerment. Through Vajrayogini, the Mother of All the Buddhas, the meaning of the Buddha's words is beginning to reveal itself. ______________ To support our efforts to share these talks with LGBTQIA audiences worldwide, please visit https://gaybuddhist.org/There you can: Donate Learn how to participate live Find our schedule of upcoming speakers Join our mailing list or discussion forum Enjoy many hundreds of these recorded talks dating back to 1996 CREDITSAudio Engineer: George HubbardProducer: Tom BrueinMusic/Logo/Artwork: Derek Lassiter

In this 3-part series, Danadasa covers the "Three Great Turnings" of the wheel of the dharma that resulted in the Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions.Here in Part 2, he explores how Mahayana Buddhism builds on early Buddhist teachings to emphasize interconnectedness and engagement with the world. He contrasts embodied imagination—a tool for liberation—with fantasy, which is mere escapism. Through imagination, we can transform harmful narratives into those fostering peace and well-being. Danadasa highlights the Mahayana method of creating archetypal symbols, like Amitabha Buddha, to inspire and guide practitioners, encouraging reliance on higher wisdom rather than individual control.He also addresses balancing inner peace with active engagement in a polarized world. By using meditation to cultivate an inner “bounded space,” individuals can replenish emotional resilience and learn to let go of toxic tendencies, such as mental proliferation and polarization. Danadasa emphasizes that true freedom arises not from avoiding the world but from embracing impermanence and interconnectedness, offering practical steps for thriving in challenging circumstances.______________Danadasa (he/him) began meditating and practicing Buddhism in 1993 and was ordained in the Triratna Buddhist Order in 2011 at the San Francisco Buddhist Center.

In this 3-part series, Danadasa covers the "Three great turnings" of the wheel of the dharma that resulted in the Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana traditions.Here in Part 1, Danadasa touches on Theravada perspectives, emphasizes the original teachings of the Buddha from the Pali canon, such as the concept of the "two darts": physical pain as inevitable (the first dart) and the additional suffering we create through our mental reactions (the second dart). He explains that liberation lies in recognizing these reactions as echoes from the past rather than intrinsic truths, allowing us to let them naturally fade. This practice shifts our perspective from intellectual understanding to embodied wisdom. He also connects these teachings to social polarization, highlighting the need to balance inner peace with outer engagement. By setting boundaries, cultivating resilience, and embracing impermanence, Danadasa urges us to navigate modern challenges compassionately, breaking free from habitual suffering and fostering harmony within ourselves and with others.______________Danadasa (he/him) began meditating and practicing Buddhism in 1993 and was ordained in the Triratna Buddhist Order in 2011 at the San Francisco Buddhist Center.

Send us a Text Message.At 7 years old, Erdne Ombadykow's parents sent him from his birthplace of Philadelphia to live at a Tibetan Buddhist Monastery where he would spent most of his childhood learning Buddhism. He was then recognized by the 14th Dalai Lama as the current reincarnation of the Buddhist saint, mahasiddha Tilopa and was tasked with leading the revival of Buddhism in Russia in the Kalmyk Republic. Now called Telo Tulku Rinpoche, he shares in this episode, the pressure of being such a revered religious figure at age 20, how good American rock is like Buddhist teachings & how growing up far from the streets of Philadelphia helped him avoid the sad fates of his siblings. We also covered the Buddhist version of self-care, what it means to progress while preserving culture & the interconnectedness of the world. Special thanks to the Tin Can Room Podcast Studio for the recording space & Meanwhile in Mongolia for arranging the meeting.If you liked this episode, you'll also like episode 246: MONGOLIAN YOUTUBER: THE DIGITAL & THE TRADITIONALGuest: https://www.instagram.com/telo_rinpoche_diluv_hutugthu/ | https://www.facebook.com/DiluvHutugthu/ | https://inner-world-journey.com/ Host:  https://www.meredithforreal.com/  | https://www.instagram.com/meredithforreal/  | meredith@meredithforreal.com | https://www.youtube.com/meredithforreal  | https://www.facebook.com/meredithforrealthecuriousintrovert Sponsors: https://www.jordanharbinger.com/starterpacks/ | https://uwf.edu/university-advancement/departments/historic-trust/ | https://www.ensec.net/

(Insight Meditation Society - Retreat Center) Reflections on practicing with breath and awareness: readings from Ajahn Chah and Tilopa's song to Naropa. Mantra "may I be filled with loving kindness"

A reading of the timeless teaching of Naropa's - "The Summary of Mahamudra". English version by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche and Erik Pema Kunsang Nāropā (1016-1100) was an Indian Buddhist Mahasiddha. He was the disciple of Tilopa and brother, or some sources say partner and pupil, of Niguma. As an Indian Mahasiddha, Naropa's instructions inform Vajrayana, particularly his six yogas of Naropa relevant to the completion stage of anuttarayogatantra. He was also one of the gatekeepers of Vikramashila monastery which is located in Bihar. Mahāmudrā (Sanskrit: महामुद्रा, Tibetan: ཕྱག་ཆེན་) literally means "great seal" or "great imprint" and refers to the fact that "all phenomena inevitably are stamped by the fact of wisdom and emptiness inseparable". Music: David Parsons - 'Abode of Shiva'

Here is the seventh episode of the Dakini Conversations podcast, an in-depth discussion with the leading Indian Kālacakra scholar and translator, Niraj Kumar, who was also recently promoted to Joint Secretary of the Indian Ministry of Culture (after being the Director for a couple of years).   Niraj is a commentator on Shakta and Buddhist Tantras, and has been active with various facets of Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhism for more than a decade. His ongoing work is five volume pentalogy on Kalacakra Tantra, the first comprehensive English translation and new commentary of the Sanskrit text, for several centuries after it was said to have been first written down in the 11th century. The Kālacakra Tantra is said to be the climax of the Indian Buddhist Nalanda tradition and the last major Buddhist tantra composed in India.  Niraj Kumar's first volume on Kālacakra was published in 2022, and the second volume is expected to be released within next couple of months. Niraj is also a pan-Asian thinker and writer on geopolitics in Asia and was instrumental in organizing the First Asia Peace Forum in New Delhi (2015). He is also one of the key architects of ongoing exposition of the sacred relics of Shakyamuni Buddha in Thailand this year. I first became aware of Niraj Kumar when he personally asked me to present his Kālacakra work at the Vajrayana conference in Bhutan in 2022, which he was unable to attend. Several people also suggested that I interview him about his work on Kalacakra. I then had the good fortune to meet Niraj in India last year for an Indian academic conference at which I was invited to be a keynote speaker. At that time, we exchanged our Kālacakra publications and on finally reading his work, I was amazed and fascinated by the research, ideas and revelations in the Introduction to his book. It was surprising that more people did not know about them and so part of the reason for this interview is to bring some of those ideas out to a larger more general audience. See also: https://dakinitranslations.com/kalacakra-2/ During our podcast discussion, we speak about Kumar's Introduction to the first volume, which is full of fascinating research and revelations, including some of the key concepts in the Tantra regarding time (kāla), the three realms (outer, inner and other), the types of breath/energy, and death itself. This is then followed by a discussion of the dating of the composition of the root Kālacakra text itself (1027 CE), the oldest extant texts available of it (one on palm-leaf currently housed at the British Library), and remarkably indeed the proposed authorship of the written root text being the great Indian Mahasiddha, Naropa, who received the transmission of it from his guru Tilopa, who is said to have been taught it in the Kingdom of Shambhala itself.  The latter part of the discussion relates to how the main lineages of Kālacakra came into Tibet, finishing with an analysis of contemporary practice and application of Kālacakra and how it has degenerated away from the words and advice of the root Tantra text with 20th Century mass empowerments to thousands of 'unqualified' people, for predominantly political, social and financial purposes in cohorts with the Chinese communist government. Kumar also states in his book that the empowerments given by the 14th Dalai Lama are also not 'correct' because they were not all given on the full moon, as advised by the root Tantra.

Después de su período de aprendizaje y búsqueda de Tilopa, Naropa se dio cuenta de que para encontrarlo, debía purificarse. Entonces comenzó a hacer prácticas para prepararse para encontrarse con Tilopa. Una vez que, según su óptica, se había purificado lo suficiente, prosiguió su búsqueda. Entonces entró en una aldea y preguntó: …"¿Hay un maestro espiritual aquí llamado Tilopa?"… Todos los aldeanos que le escucharon sonrieron, y uno de ellos le contestó: …“No, nosotros no tenemos un maestro espiritual, pero es cierto que hay un pescador allí. Puedes ir a verlo. Su nombre es Tilopa”… Entonces fue hacia donde le indicaron, y encontró a Tilopa, que estaba vestido como un pescador, sudando como un pescador, hablando como un pescador. Naropa le dijo: …"Mi gurú al fin, te encontré"… Y se postró frente a sus pies. Tilopa lo miró y le respondió: …“¿Estás loco? Eres un noble, un príncipe, un maestro espiritual. Soy pescador, ¿por qué te inclinas?”…. Asimilemos el ensayo …

El ORIGEN de los Yogas de Naropa Los seis yogas de Naropa no fueron creación suya. Al contrario, como en el caso de cualquier enseñanza auténtica del tantra budista; derivan del propio buda histórico que vivió hace aproximadamente 2500 años. Incluso el propio Dlai Lama ha realizado algunas matizaciones al respecto. La forma en que el Buddha se presenta en las enseñanzas avanzadas del tantra es la de Vajradhara portador del cetro diamantino; también conocido como “el Buddha de los Tantras”. Las bendiciones, instrucciones y logros espirituales de estas enseñanzas tártricas llegan hasta nuestros días a través de dos tipos delinaje: el lejano y el cercano. El primer linaje consiste en las relaciones consecutivas de “Guru discípulo” que une una generación con la siguiente. El discípulo realizado de un maestro se convierte en mentor de sus propios discípulos. En términos de las enseñanzas tártricas el linaje viene del propio Buddha, pasando por mahashidi indios tan famosos como Saraha, Nagaryuna, Ghantapa y Tilopa. Valoremos lo descripto …

Los Últimos 3 Preceptos de Tilopa No EXAMINES Las interpretaciones y los juicios deforman nuestra visión de la realidad porque nos obligan a mirar el presente a través de los lentes del pasado. Al hacer esto ya no estamos viendo la realidad sino la proyección de nuestras creencias, prejuicios y paradigmas. Para cumplir este consejo necesitamos eliminar las categorías mentales de “bueno” y “malo” que hacen que percibamos al mundo en blanco y negro, perdiéndonos así de la infinita gama de colores que existen. ¿A qué tratar de interpretar nada? Nuestro conocimiento es parcial y limitado, por tanto, nuestras conclusiones siempre serán parciales, desmochadas e inciertas. NO CONTROLES Esta es la forma más poderosa de oración: soltar todo y dejar que el Tao obre con su inteligencia y nos muestre su designio de forma natural. Cuando tratamos de controlar las circunstancias obstaculizamos el fluir del Tao y dejamos que la mente se interponga. Para fluir con el Tao se necesita tener la certeza absoluta de que la Vida siempre está de nuestro lado.. Consideremos la reseña …

Enseñanzas de Sri Savari Discípulo de Nagarjuna y Saraha, Tilopa recibió las instrucciones completas de La Sabiduría Iluminadora Del Mahamudra, también llamado “El Gran Sello”. Eran las instrucciones sin ritual, forma o sofisticación. Mahasiddha Sri Savari fue también llamado el "Morador de las montañas y Cazador". Savari fue guiado a la liberación por Nagarjuna, de quien recibió las enseñanzas completas de Mahamudra, pero también recibió las enseñanzas directas de este mismo Mahamudra por parte de Saraha. Cuenta la leyenda, que Savari el cazador morador de la colina, encontró al Mahasattva Avalokitesvara, que aposto a que él podría matar 100 animales con una flecha contra una promesa de Savari para abstenerse de cazar por un mes. Aceptó la apuesta y Avalokitesvara mató los 100 animales con un solo disparo. Los animales eran emanaciones de su mente, no animales verdaderos. Savari mantuvo su promesa y a él y a su esposa les fueron mostrados su karma terrible, creado por todo lo que ellos habían matado. Convencido por la visión de esta formación negativa de karma, ellos llegaron a ser budistas tantricos y con paciencia y resolución en cada uno de ellos dentro de la unión eventualmente alcanzaron la liberación..

Enseñanzas de Sri Rolpe Dorje De el discípulo de Sri Lawapa. Tilopa recibió el “Hevajra Tantra” y el yoga del sueño. Rolpe Dorje fue el cuarto Gyalwa Karmapa, oficialmente «Su Santidad Karmapa Gyalwa» y es la cabeza de la escuela Karma Kagyu del Budismo. Según la leyenda, la madre del cuarto Karmapa, mientras estaba embarazada, podía escuchar el sonido del mantra Om Mani Padme Hum. Que probablemente, es el mantra más famoso del budismo, y lo escuchaba mientras el niño estaba en su vientre y el bebé dijo el mantra tan pronto como nació. Su vida temprana estuvo llena de milagros y manifestó una continuidad total de las enseñanzas y cualidades de su encarnación anterior, incluyendo la recepción de enseñanzas en sus sueños. Durante su adolescencia, recibió las transmisiones formales de los linajes Kagyu y Nyingma del gran gurú Nyingma Yungtonpa, el tercer heredero espiritual del Karmapa, ahora muy avanzado en años.

In this rich talk, punctuated with wise quotes, David Lewis examines the nature of the mind and shares that our practice can be much easier than we make it out to be. Often we just need to relax and settle in to what is happening in the moment.Tilopa, the teacher of Naropa who founded the Vajrayāna tradition, offered these simple practice instructions: "Don't recall, imagine, think, examine, or control; just relax."David advises that the mind is not one thing, but comprised of two processes: emptiness and cognition. However, the empty nature of the mind won't be revealed by thinking about it. It is only available through our own direct experience of the present moment. Meditation is about letting go of the cognitive aspects of the mind so that we can access the luminous, spacious qualities of the mind by relaxing into it. If we trust our thinking mind but not our intuition and awareness, it can put us off meditation and mindfulness altogether. He encourages us to trust our own experience more than books and talks. "Listening only to others can become like perusing a menu without ever tasting the food." ______________ David Lewis has been following the dharma path for 50 years and has a degree in comparative religious studies.  He teaches at several Buddhist sanghas around the Bay Area and offers a weekly meditation group for seniors (currently on Zoom) at OpenHouse, a nonprofit serving LGBTQI+ seniors.  He's always happy to return to the Gay Buddhist Fellowship, where he gave his first dharma talk around 15 years ago.

ENSEÑANDO  a  Tilopa Siguiendo los consejos de la Dakini que se le apareció en su visión; Tilopa comenzó a viajar a través de la India recibiendo enseñanzas de varios gurúes. Enseñanzas de Matanga Que según otras fuentes era la Dakini Matonga, y de ella aprendió La resurrección de un cadáver. Matangha, también llamada Matangi, es una diosa hindú. Ella es una de las Mahavidyas, que eran diez diosas tántricas; y ella sería un aspecto de la Madre Divina Hindú.

He practised Anuttarayoga Tantra, a set of spiritual practices intended to accelerate the process of attaining Buddhahood.

Like sesame oil ~ Tilopa Sesame oil is the essence. Although the ignorant know that it is in the sesame seed, they do not understand the way of cause, effect and becoming, and therefore are not able to extract the essence, the sesame oil. Although innate coemergent wisdom abides in the heart of all beings, if it is not shown by the guru, it cannot be realized. Just like sesame oil that remains in the seed, it does not appear. One removes the husk by beating the sesame, and the sesame oil, the essence appears. In the same way, the guru shows the truth of tathata, and all phenomena become indivisible in one essence. Kye ho! The far-reaching, unfathomable meaning is apparent at this very moment. O how wondrous!” Donations --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/enlightenverse/message

So in this second stage, the practitioners actually submit themselves to conditions such as rage or desire that would normally evoke disturbing consequences. In the first stage of completely virtuous behavior, beginners avoid these situations, but in the vanquishing stage, meditators actually seek them out. The meditators have to destroy their arrogance, pride, and hatred by throwing themselves into situations that evoke a response that allows them to work with these emotions. The third stage of “victorious in all actions” is the final expression of total fearlessness; a total lack of any inhibition about anything that is done. An example of this third kind of behavior would be to fearlessly ride on the back of an incensed tigress. This stage is the final expression of realization. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/enlightenverse/message

Don't recall. Let go of what has passed. Don't imagine. Let go of what may come. Don't think. Let go of what is happening now. Don't examine. Don't try to figure anything out. Don't control. Don't try to make anything happen. Rest. Relax, right now, and rest. Tilopa --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/enlightenverse/message

Tilopa, known as Prajna Bhadra, was born in the town of Chativavo (Chittagong, which is now in Banladesh), into the Brahmin caste. His birthplace is also recorded to be Jagora (in eastern Bengal, India?). His father was Pranyasha and mother, Kashi. When he grew up he learned all the doctrinal treatises of Brahminism. While he was wandering in various places asking for alms, he finally came to a temple and, seeing that the monks lived a life of renunciation, he entered the monastic life and became a learned in the Tripitaka, the three collections of the teachings of the Buddha. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/enlightenverse/message

Tilopa was born in eastern India in 988. When Tilopa was a young boy, he had the special qualities of being extremely compassionate, kind, and loving. He was a cowherd and played in the forest without a care. At that time, the great Nagarjuna was out walking in the vicinity.11 He had the special insight that in this region there was someone who was an ideal vessel to receive the Vajrayana teachings. Pondering this, he proceeded to the place between the town and the river where Tilopa was taking care of water buffaloes. Nagarjuna wanted to cross the river and pretended not to know where to ford it. He went to a point in the river with rapids and high waves and pretended that he was going to walk into the raging river. Tilopa came running up to him and said, “I will help you by carrying you across. There is no need for you to be afraid or to trouble yourself.” Nagarjuna instantly saw that this child had great potential for developing intense devotion and compassion and that he had the capacity for extreme courage and diligence. He allowed the boy to carry him into the river. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/enlightenverse/message
