Be Positive…..
Nobody can predict what will happen tomorrow, but we can say precisely what is going to happen to us in the near future because it all depends on what we do now. We cannot run away from the consequences of our own actions, and today is a good day to promise ourselves not to act […]
Please do not imprison ourselves with the five poisons….
Humans and non-humans are all imprisoned by negative emotions such as anger, attachment, ignorance, pride, and jealousy. We cannot really say that one is less evil than the other, but in today’s working environments, jealousy is the one which is ruining the lives of many individuals. The negative effects of jealousy are tremendous and ruthless, […]
Just Sharing….
Our requirements are countless, and fulfilling our needs may be an uphill task for us. If we try to list all our wishes, then even a few lifetimes would not be enough to fulfill them. In my opinion, we just have to prioritize what is most important, and we should spend the rest of our […]
Patience is the best virtue…..
Anger is a source of disharmony and unpleasant feelings. The more we tolerate anger, the stronger the anger tends to become, and eventually it consumes our hard earned merit and our very life. Thus, the moment anger comes in, we should not entertain it. Instead, we should immediately nurture patience by recalling all the negative […]
Sometimes…..
Sometimes we want to forget everything and just lie down on the floor, stretch our arms, and enjoy our well deserved peace of mind for a moment, because most of the time we live a chaotic life and such moments become a luxury. We may have many kinds of wishes to fulfil in life. However, […]
In Gharwang Rinpoche’s opinion……
Written words is a form of powerful tool to pass messages to others. However, written words can only be meaningful when followed by actions. Many times, people like to say beautiful things about others but these may just be empty words with no benefit or purpose. Thus, in my opinion, when we say something to others, […]
Look In Not Out..
We may ask ourselves and others: “What is the sign of well-studied Buddhist practitioner and what is the sign of well-practiced meditator?” It is really difficult to answer these questions. However, according to the strictly Buddhist point of view, the sign of well-studied practitioner is someone who becomes humbler and more down to earth without […]
The Future is in our own Hands
Every night before we go to sleep and every morning when we wake up, we are beginning with a new important task in our hands which shapes our future. In my opinion, we have to be very careful with regard to our actions, because it is we who can really decide what kind of legacy we […]
Failure is the Stepping Stone to Success
When we are working for success, we have to be mentally prepared to accept whatever the outcome may be, because failure is possible in anything we undertake in our lives. But, failure does not mean that it’s the end of the world. It would be wiser from our side to simply move on from it […]
Jealousy and Pride
Jealousy and pride can blind us to seeing what is ethical and meaningful in our lives. Without wisdom acquired through listening, contemplation, meditation, and especially the proper guidance of qualified teachers, we can assume that our future is bleak. It may be hard for us not to follow the footsteps of our negative emotions because […]
