- Tsongkhapa’s Vision of Manjushri in Wölkha - Thupten Jinpa PhD
This event was held on October 24th from 10am-11:30am US PDT, presented via Facebook livestream on Tse Chen Ling Center for Buddhist Studies’ Facebook page.
From the life story of Jey Tsongkhapa (1357-1419), we know of his special connection with Manjushri, the Buddha of wisdom. Throughout his life, this connection was reflected in auspicious signs during his youth and later as meditative visions of Manjushri as he embarked on his journey of study, practice and retreat. At one point in his life, Tsongkhapa was able to begin receiving direct spiritual instruction from Manjushri with the ability to check his realization of the profound view of emptiness directly with the deity.
In this special event, Thupten Jinpa PhD shared with us an examination of a particular instruction which Tsongkhapa received directly from Manjushri in a vision while in retreat in the Wölkha Valley in Tibet, and later memorialized into an eighteen-lined root text. Thupten Jinpa will interweave stories from Tsongkhapa's journey to gaining final insight into the view of emptiness and the role Manjushri's instructions played in this.
In preparation for this event, Dr. Jinpa advised that people look at Tsongkhapa’s text “In Praise of Dependent Origination.” You can download the text here:

This event was presented simultaneously via Facebook livestream on Tse Chen Ling’s Facebook page and via Zoom to a limited number of Tse Chen Ling ordained sangha and community members.

Because, those looking at times, are not focusing on lies, so those paid to share the lies of a box, its hard to predict those who choose to focus on ignoring the reality of the body and the world.

the information about the honey is very... enlightening... the honey of bees carries the neurotransmitters found in the flowers they are in ... neurotransmitters are not extra.. our bodies don't work without them... honey concentrates the goodness.. they are what allows the Chi... the energy and information to pass back and forth between body and brain... please make sure His Holiness uses honey from Tibet... from the high mountains.. you too Master Jinpa... please 🙏
a gift... from me to thee... live and love forever... please 🙏
Namaste
a brief explanation... when we get those neurotransmitters in our daily diet... our bodies begin to make endogenous stem cells.. that is what white blood cells are... when they get the correct information... the correct information is written in the RNA and DNA in each cell in the body... communication between body and brain is essential for the system to work correctly... honey sounds a lot less threatening than anything else I have come up with... so this is way cool, brother... affordable health care for all the kids... far out Man
a few years ago a friend over in Dubai signed off saying... don't forget the honey, honey 🍯... now I know what he meant 😸... slow but sure...
Peace ✌️🙏♾️🙏
