"Magát az ösvényt végül el kell hagyni, Ahogyan a hajót is elhagyod. amikor elérjük a túlpartot. Ki kell szállnod, ha már megérkeztél. A teljes megvalósításkor, el kell engedned a buddhizmust... spirituális út egy átmeneti megoldás, egy placebó, amit használni kell, amíg az Ürességet meg nem érted." (Dzongszár Khjence Rinpocse)

"Recently I spent time with my father, and my father is considered a great Mahasandhi master .. [ Thinley Norbu Rinpoche ]
......Something he said really struck me for days, for months..........
He said, pointing at me, " You will never achieve enlightenment in this life. " And I was sort of suprised and stunned.
And he said " Do you know why? Because you're so rational. You are trapped by so called rationalism."
That is so true. Because all the time, every time what I do, I do so that people will not be upset. So that people will like me. Almost so much so that sometimes I do things so that people will praise me.......
This is a spiritual cosmopolitan. It is a complete show. It is hypocrisy. Nothing inside.
All you are trying to do is to behave nice so that people will like you. You are deceiving yourself and you are deceiving others."
~ Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche,
from a talk called : The Three Levels of Perception.

DZONGSAR KHYENTSE RINPOCHE
Invocation
Dewdrop, lamp, phantom, rainbow, oasis,
Such is my life and the lives of others -
I surrender to this truth.
To the one who spoke this truth,
The Prince of the Shakyas
I offer my adoration.
To all those who take this truth to heart,
l offer my allegiance.
With determination, I remind myself:
No emotion, just peace,
No ignorance, just awareness,
No anxiety, just serenity,
No weakness, just strength,
No fear, just tranquillity.
With this attitude and free from doubt, I alone will liberate the world's living creatures,
Plants, water and atmosphere.
Appearances are deceptive, I shall mistrust them.
Nothingness is just a point of view, I shall not to get entangled in it.
Living beings are, by nature, stainless, I shall treasure that stainlessness.
Reality is the bait, I shall not be lured into conformity.
Only in darkness can I see light,
Only in mud can I find a lotus,
Only in defilements can I see Buddha.
Humbly, without a trace of hypocrisy, I solemnly promise all living beings
That from this day forward,
I will never abandon you.
Wherever you are, may I always be beside you.
Past is now, future is now,
Now is an illusion,
Illusion is luminous.
Such boundlessness is mind:
Other than mind, there is no Buddha.
I beseech you, O Mind!
May I be free from death, old age and sickness.
May I be free from ideas and opinions,
May I be free from time, May I be free from space,
And may I free all others from their limitations.
Written in response to a number of requests, on the last day of the tumultuous year of 2022, by one on whose five aggregates the label 'Khyentse Norbu' has been adhered.

Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse
Tumblr media
In August 2017, lama, filmmaker, and writer Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche (aka Khyentse Norbu), wrote a 10,000-word open letter that defended Sogyal Lakar’s clerical abuse (source: Patheos).
Points, directly quoted from the letter, include:
“However you describe Sogyal Rinpoche’s style of teaching, the key point here is that if his students had received a Vajrayana initiation, if at the time they received it they were fully aware that it was a Vajrayana initiation, and if Sogyal Rinpoche had made sure that all the necessary prerequisites has been adhered to and fulfilled, then from the Vajrayana point of view, there is nothing wrong with Sogyal Rinpoche’s subsequent actions. (By the way, ‘initiation’ includes the pointing out instruction which is the highest Vajrayana initiation, known as the fourth abhisheka.)“
“Frankly, for a student of Sogyal Rinpoche who has consciously received abhisheka and therefore entered or stepped onto the Vajrayana path, to think of labelling Sogyal Rinpoche’s actions as ‘abusive,’ or to criticize a Vajrayana master even privately, let alone publicly and in print, or simply to reveal that such methods exist, is a breakage of samaya.”
“There is no room whatsoever for even a glimmer of an impure perception.“
In the same letter, Khyentse also defends Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche:
“I found especially interesting the dynamics between the Tibetan lama, Trungpa Rinpoche, and his American students, all brimming with devotion and lacking in personal authority, and the parallel with dysfunctional family systems. Trungpa Rinpoche appears as a drunken, crazy surrogate for the dysfunctional families of the authors. The ploys used to keep the power differential operating in the community of Rinpoche’s followers mimic the betrayal and required secrets in the alcoholic family.”
Two months after this letter, Khyentse posted a 17-page “sex contract” for gurus and disciples on his Facebook page. The post (now deleted but preserved in screenshot form with the full contract), read:
I thought this might come in handy for Rinpoches like myself who are not omniscient, not omnipotent, and not well trained; who don’t give enough preparatory training on the prerequisites to their students; and who get carried away by their own self-agendas and, from time to time, by their hormones.
MAKE LOVE NOT HEADLINES! SCREW WITHOUT GETTING SCREWED!

"Whatever teachings one takes, it is very important to meditate on them. This will enable one to develop great qualities in Dharma. Without meditation, no matter how much teaching one hears, no matter how much teaching one writes down, no matter how much teaching one records on tape, one will never be able to develop the qualities of Dharma."
- Thinley Norbu Rinpoche (Pictured in the center top, along with others of his family, including a young Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche sitting in front of him.)

No Buddhist

Kalu Rinpoche
"My advice,
don't be a Buddhist.
In the end it's all about personal gain,
fame and business.
Just be a person with a good heart,
that's the meaning
of a truthful Dharma practitioner.
We live in illusion
and the appearance of things.
There is a reality. We are that reality.
When you understand this,
you see that you are nothing,
and being nothing, you are everything.
That is all."
"His Eminence Kalu Rinpoche was one of the great wisdom masters of our age. He was born in 1905 in the district of Tresho Gangchi Rawa in the Hor region of far eastern Tibet. His father was Legshey Drayang, the thirteenth tulku of Ratak Palzang. His mother, Drolkar, was a disciple of Jamgon Khyentse Wangpo, Jamgon Kontrul Lodro Thaye, and the renowned Lama Mipham Namgyal. Both his father and mother were devoted to religion, and shortly after their marriage they spent time in retreat together. It was during that retreat that Drolkar became pregnant. Kalu Rinpoche's father, not yet knowing that his wife was pregnant, had a startling vivid dream of his teacher Kontrul Rinpoche. In this dream or vision, Kontrul announced that he was coming to stay with them and that they should prepare a place for him. The meaning of this dream appeared to make itself clear some time later, when His Holiness the Gyalwa Karmapa recognized the child as the activity incarnation of the great Kontrul Rinpoche.
The young child showed remarkable compassion to all beings and his intellect proved to be exceptional. He began his monastic career by his own wish at the age of thirteen, entering the glorious Palpung Monastery of His Eminence Tai Situ Rinpoche. At that time Tai Situ Pema Wangcho Gyalpo gave him his getsul ordination, naming him Karma Rangjung Kunchyap. The prefix "Karma" identified him as a practitioner of the Karma Ka'gyu tradition.
At Palpung and elsewhere in eastern Tibet, Kalu Rinpoche studied the teachings of the sutras and tantras, receiving instruction from many different wise Lamas.
At sixteen, Kalu Rinpoche entered Kunzang Dechen Osal Ling, the retreat center originally founded by Jamgon Kontrul Lodro Thaye. It was at Kunzang Dechen that he completed the traditional three year retreat under the direction of venerable Lama Norbu Thondup. During that retreat Kalu Rinpoche received the complete transmission of the Karma Ka'gyu and Shangpa Ka'gyu lineages, in particular the transmission of the Five Golden Dharmas of the great Siddha Khungpo Naljor.
At the age of twenty-five his heartfelt desire was to practice meditation in a wilderness retreat in the mountains. Leaving everything behind, Rinpoche departed to do an extended solitary retreat in the desolate wilderness, forests and mountains of eastern Tibet, living the ascetic life of a wandering yogin. For twelve years he lived in that manner, imitating the eremetical life of Milarepa, Tibet's great yogi. Occupying lonely caves, he spent his time in spiritual practice and meditation.
In the 1940s Kalu Rinpoche began visiting monasteries, traditional centers of learning and practice, all over Tibet. He was now a recognized wisdom master, called from his retreat by Tai Situ Rinpoche and blessed by the supreme custodian of the Ka'gyu lineage, His Holiness the Karmapa. An accomplished master of the Five Golden Dharmas of the Shangpa school, he bestowed ripening empowerments and instruction on a vast number of yogis and yoginis. On a visit to Lhasa, around 1948, he was asked to grant teachings on the Regent of the young Dalai Lama.
In 1955, a few years prior to the Chinese Communist conquest of Tibet was about to take place, Rinpoche visited His Holiness the Karmapa at Tsurphu. The Karmapa asked Kalu Rinpoche to deliberately leave Tibet in order to prepare the ground in India and Bhutan for the inevitable exile of His Holiness. Thus in 1957, Kalu Rinpoche was appointed the abbot of Jangchub Choling Monastery in Bhutan. He became the personal chaplain of the royal family.
In 1965 Rinpoche established his own lineage monastery of Samdrup Targye Ling at Sonada, not far from Darjeeling, in India. A few years after that foundation he was able to establish a three year retreat complex there. In this manner he was able to preserve the Shangpa and Kamtsang lineage teachings through definite practice of meditation.
Kalu Rinpoche and Namgyal RinpocheIn 1973, at the request of His Holiness the 16th Karmapa, Kalu Rinpoche bestowed the full Ka'gyu transmission on the four regents Shamar Rinpoche, Tai Situ Rinpoche, Jamgon Kontrul Rinpoche, Gyaltsap Rinpoche, and also, at the same time, on the exceptional Canadian Lama Namgyal Rinpoche. These teachings included all the Ka'gyu major empowerments, instruction in Mahamudra and the six doctrines of Naropa, along with full inner explanation.
From 1971 onwards Kalu Rinpoche traveled extensively at the request of His Holiness the Karmapa, establishing Dharma Centers and three-year retreat facilities in Europe, the USA, Canada and Southwest Asia. Kalu Rinpoche founded more than 20 retreat centers worldwide and an innumerable number of Dharma centers.
In 1988 Rinpoche began the construction of a great stupa in Salugara, near Siliguri, in the eastern part of India.
In 10th May 1989 Kalu Rinpoche, loved by a vast flock of disciples, passed away. He was reborn on 17th September 1990, the offspring of Lama Gyaltsen and Kalzang Drolkar, to continue his undying work in the world."
