Words of advice
OVERVIEW
Kings, merchants, wandering monks, warriors, indigents, during his forty-five years of teaching the Buddha has always offered instructions that are both practical and profound, adapting to the crowds of listeners who came to meet him. Following him, the greatest Buddhist masters composed through different times and places works of spiritual advice adapted to the situations and cultures of their students of the moment. It is a part of this immense heritage that Rinpoche invites us to discover.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THESE TEACHINGS?
Based on the works of illustrious masters such as ārya Nāgārjuna or Padampa Sangye, as well as his own experience of modern life in Asia and the West, Rinpoche gives us advice for our time. From session to session, we come to realize that these verses address the timeless concerns of human beings throughout the ages: is there life after death? is it possible to free oneself from suffering? is there an inexhaustible happiness? How to reach it? What is the meaning of this life? Do love and compassion have a place in our society?
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?
Through simple terms, borrowed from daily life, these profound teachings constantly invite us to go beyond the appearances of our lives to touch and embrace a deeper reality, an existence filled with love and wisdom.
