Make Your Mind an Ocean with Ven Thubten Wangdu

Описание: Wisdom Dialogues - Episode 4: Make Your Mind an Ocean with Ven Thubten Wangdu

Talk Description:
“Look into your mind; when your mind is narrow, small things easily agitate you. Therefore, make your mind an ocean.”
– Lama Yeshe

The various meditation techniques that were taught by the Buddha are methods for us to become more genuinely happy human beings — to cultivate a sense of inner contentment and well-being that is lasting. This derives from seeing more clearly how things actually are. From the Buddhist perspective, our repeated experiences of dissatisfaction and frustration do not have external conditions as their root cause, but all mental problems come from the mind. Therefore, if we aspire for true satisfaction in our lives we have to investigate and recognise the nature of our own mind and discover how our minds interpret reality.

This talk includes a 10 minute meditation led by Ven Wangdu

“One of the most important things is to focus on bringing compassion into our everyday intentions. If we can do this, it will boost our confidence, which in turn will help us deal with challenges. If you give in to anxiety instead, you can’t use your human resources to think things through. To exercise your rational faculty, you need to relax and find peace.”
— HH the Dalai Lama, FDCW Patron
