Pristine Awareness Foundation
Australia
Приєднався 8 жов 2019
Pristine Awareness: Foundation for Buddhist Practice is an online organisation and network of practice groups. We offer two distinct streams of practice and training: 1. a secular program of Calm Abiding and Insight meditation instruction for people of all faiths or no faith; 2. a Buddhist program focused on sharing the core of the Buddha’s teachings, specifically teachings on meditation and compassion. We are inspired by the Dzogchen tradition of Tibetan Buddhism and also by the Chan tradition (Chinese Zen) . At Pristine Awareness we focus on the essential Buddhist practices that lead to direct experience of one's true nature rather than on complex rituals, visualisations or mantra recitation.
The Joy Practice and Dzogchen
In this 3 minute video, long-term retreatant and Dharma teacher Jamyang Tenphel explains the relationship between the Joy Practice and Dzogchen. The Joy Practice was given to Jamyang Tenphel by Kyabje Togden Amtrin, the great Dzogchen yogi of Khampagar monastery. Jamyang has been in retreat since 2019 (nearly six years) and recorded this message "in the wild" from his retreat place.

In essence, Bodhicitta is one and the same with our true nature, our Buddha Nature. In other words, Bodhicitta is nondual awareness alive with boundless love and inconceivable joy.

A core truth of Buddhism is that we are all equal and all have the potential for enlightenment. It is Buddhist practice not study that leads to liberation from suffering and full enlightenment. But what if we are so overwhelmed by suffering that we feel that we can’t practice? Does this mean that our potential and hope for enlightenment will be unfulfilled? This is often how those with severe o...

I absolutely enjoy your teaching very much.....its Wonderful ❤💎🪷🌈😇 I've already subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to listen more of your teaching. 🙏☸️
Thanks for your kind words
❤❤❤❤
Thankyou so 🙏 much for teaching compassion and equally love and Bachiyana
This is a wonderful talk. It is both down to earth and profound. I found it very helpful. Thank you.
(30:12) Could you say "clear vajra" instead?
Wonderful.
I would like to find a teacher. I have much to learn about Buddhism.
Go to our website and check out our teachers: www.pristine-awareness.org
After meditation comes contemplation. Than one can be meditative or not. Yoga is important. Yeshe Tsigal, was and is really hard practitioner. Still remember her. Thank you, my memory was not good, and I did not like writing. And her samadhi was incredible.
What a fantastic Teaching, thank You so much 😊❤🌻
You are most welcome
Fantastic!!!

What were the signs of progress? You started speaking of them 😊
The signs of progress are the same here as in all Dharma practices, a gradual increase in the 4 Immeasurables. Here we begin by focusing on joy. As joy increases, and the heart relaxes and opens, we then begin to experience boundless love, compassion and equanimity. These will naturally grow in your heart the more we relax and rest in joy's natural radiance.
I have proof that Yeshe Tsogyal and the other consorts of Padmasambhava are prayed to in villages in Lakhisarai District of Bihar.
I am a researcher of Buddhism in Bihar. All the places written about Padmasambhava's life in India, are found in Lakhisarai District of Bihar. You have Zahor (Sahur village with a dakini temple), lake Dhanakosha with an Island, and Urgain. Padmasambhavas eight manifestations are prayed to, and statues with his eight manifestations are easy to find.
woonderful - it works!
Thank you for your wonderful enthusiasm!
A truly beautiful teaching by a luminous practitioner. Thank you. ☸🪷🕉
🙏🏽✨🪷 Thank you Jamyang 🪷✨🙏🏽
Thank you for watching 😊❤.
How would you translate "clear Vajra"?
Clear can com from two tibetan words salwa which means clarity or zhangtalle which means it is completely clear, unobstructed, it recognizes everything with clarity in an unobstructed way (the three marigpas or ‘delusions are not present) vajra means the full mind potentiality which is impossible to destroy.
@@alejandropradillomacias9167 If you sit in a cinema together with 200 other people and the two main characters, a man and a woman is about to kiss 🙂 ...everyone is quiet and totally present (also in the heart) - would you say that this is a good example of clarity? Do you have a better example?
Thank you So Much H.H.❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing ❤️ The choice of words, the emotion in your gaze and voice, are worth more than any proof of love. It's the most direct, beautiful, and touching teaching I've ever heard. Thanks to you, Pema, and thanks to Jamyang. Heartfelt wishes to both of you 🪷🪷🪷
Thank you Padma. Your words are very kind.
Excellent. Thank you from France !

How does the confusion teach you about the Impermanence Rinpoche la?
Hi there, we would never want to answer a question on Rinpoche's behalf, so if you need an answer to your question you may want to message him on Facebook. Best wishes, Jalu.
I love you. ❤🏳🌈🙏
1:04:00 please share references. Buddha was great. But we don't have to malign India of that time. I have read a lot about Buddha, but I never found such a reference.🙏
We can find references to the lives of women at that time in the Therigatha, verses from the first Buddhist nuns who lived at the time of the Buddha. Sadly, most of the world was like this at that time. It was not unique to India by any means. We know through many historical documents that women were treated as objects to be used and abused, traded and sold. We should never close our eyes and hearts to the suffering of beings in the past, present or future. We must all learn to be better humans and work for the liberation of all beings from all forms of suffering. Much love.
@@pristine.awareness Please give exact reference within Therigatha, which you mentioned as reference. I read through entire Therigatha, available online. I couldn't find justification for your words in this video.

Thanks for the most down to earth gender realistic buddhist talk I have probably ever heard (and I worked for many himalayan masters..). One thing if people/vegetarians are being told by their doctors still that their 'anemia' is an iron problem, so they should then eat more meat or take iron tabs. I have studied iron 30 years since med school, when I found the iron research even then quite contradictory. Iron (filings) has been added to the food supply since ww2, and iron is now being linked to dementia, neurodegen, obesity, cholesterol, fibromyalgia etc. Hence drug companies are now urgently trying to develop iron chelation drugs atm. 1/8 people of viking and celtic ancestry also have at least partial hemochromatosis genetics which can now send you into iron overload (which doctors rarely test for or diagnose, or treat). A blood test for iron does NOT tell you how much is in the tissues (ie rust). What is more common is people having iron dysregulation, which might be caused by something like bioavailable copper deficiency (copper regulates iron, and Australian soils are now 80% copper depleted, thanks in part to Roundup). Sadly many doctors just see 'anemia; and pump people full of iron and tell them to eat meat, which can be the worst thing to do (although may give you a small temporary lift). Google 'iron and dementia', 'iron and parkinson's'. etc... it's shocking. Drink green tea or other natural iron chelators :) When I was in med school there was zero nutrition studies.
When I close my eyes you get wings 🙂 (The bright colors becomes dark) Tks for all the simple gold nuggets presented with ease so even a european understands
You are welcome. And thanks for giving me wings!! Oh, and please subscribe to our channel :)
For me Guru yoga has taught me not to create a personality cult around my teacher. But to see that because they transcend egoic identification their essence is manifested in the qualities arising from their luminous Buddha Nature which the same as my essence and all other beings. As a result Im begining to see my guru's quailties and adorments in all realized Beings and sometimes for a few moments in ordinary sentient beings. This is my view, but as a deluded personality I may be mistaken.
if you accidentally cut a worm with a spade while gardening, it is true, the two halves keep moving, whether that is self aware or just physiology (like leaves which close up when you touch them) i don’t know!
