Monday's Recommended Reading

.
From Dilgo Khyentse's
"The Heart Treasure of the Enlightened Ones,"
lets read from the Commentary on pg. 34-35 and
let's also read from the root text on page 203.





In today's selection from Dilgo Khyentse's commentary we can read:

"Trying to help people with
the things of this life
only fuels the fires of Sam-sa-ra.

At best, whatever satisfaction you
may bring about in these ways
will only be temporary;

mistaken notions of compassion.
True compassion is to establish beings in
the deathless bliss of perfect Buddhahood."


From the Dalai Lama's
"The Path to Enlightenment,"
lets read page 58-59 and
let's also read from the biography of
the 3rd Dalai Lama on page 205.





In today's selection the Dalai Lama explains:

Thirteenth Dalai Lamas all practiced widely
within all sects of Tibetan Buddhism..."

In today's selection from "The Healing Power of Love and Letting-go"
we can read:


Although I’ve won these freedoms, I am poor in
Buddha’s teachings, which are their essence.
Although I’ve entered the Dhar-ma, I
waste time with other things.

Bless me, and the foolish like me,
that we may truly make the most of these
Freedoms and Advantages that
we have received."
