[#89: Aug 3, 2024] An Extensive Commentary on the Middle Way - Ven. George Churinoff
To achieve enlightenment, the ultimate aim of oneself and others, it is not sufficient to have fully developed pure renunciation of samsara and the altruistic intention to achieve enlightenment. One definitely needs to have realized the ultimate truth of all phenomena: emptiness. This course is a detailed discourse on Nagarjuna's teachings of the Middle Way by means of Chandrakirti's Auto-Commentary to Entering the Middle Way and Lama Tsong Khapa's Illuminating the Intent of the Middle Way. Participants should ideally have a foundation of the stages of the Buddhist path, a motivation to study this text for the ultimate benefit of others, and a determination to follow the course in its entirety.

With Buddhist practice we learn to delve deeply into our own minds, unpacking and unraveling our thoughts and feelings and emotions, learning to distinguish clearly between the unhappy states of mind that limit us such as attachment, anger, depression, low self-esteem, and the positive upbeat states of mind that actually are at the core o...

Ju Mipham Gyatso, one of Tibet's greatest scholar-yogis, studied with the greatest teachers of eastern Tibet's Non-Sectarian (ri-mé) movement. On this basis, he criticizes Tsongkhapa from an unusually well-informed perspective; he really knows what Tsongkhapa is doing and why it is important but he still disagrees. We will explore Mipham's Buddhist system, his critique of Tsongkhapa, and talk a...

😞 sad. Only Christianity leads to heaven.
Thank you 🙌🏻 Love hearing about “the fruit of our virtuous karma”!❤ 7/10/24
Love all of this ❤ Thank you very much ❣️ 6/11/2024
Thank you so much🥹 I got a lot out of listening to this. Very powerful information for living life. 6/9/2024 ❤💕❣️
I don’t think looking at ‘Mummy and Daddy’ and what happened in childhood is rubbish. The more Adverse Childhood Experiences a child has the more they are likely to suffer from mental illnesses, developmental disorders (such as ADHD) addictions, physical illnesses such as autoimmune disease and cancers and literally cause premature death. Saying that these things don’t matter feels like gaslighting. They need to be processed and dealt with in a compassionate way, not telling people they don’t matter.
The concept of Karma can come across very much like victim blaming. I really don’t like it and think it can be very damaging to those who have had bad things happen to them. It can cause people to willingly take on more abuse. I think the concept of karma is used to try and stop additional harm, but I think some people take too much on and don’t do any purification and get very poorly. I also think things in this life time like childhood trauma can have a massive effect on people and how they behave and their mental health. I think the concept of purification should be as well know as karma or you just get people absorbing other people’s crap without getting rid of it. Right now I don’t want to be enlightened, I just want to purify my trauma from this lifetime. To be honest it feels too overwhelming to take on much more than that as what has happened in this lifetime is pretty big stuff to purify. Maybe when I’m done with this lifetimes trauma, I can move on to previous lifetimes. Might take a while!
I really like Dick Schwartz and his idea of ‘No Bad Parts’. As in every single bad thing that is done is a part of us that in some way is trying to protect us (even if the behaviour is actually terrible). I think it goes a long way in explaining why people do things and I can see it play out in myself and people I know.
Crap happens, craps always had happened everyone is trying to protect themselves. We just need to take responsibility, heal ourselves so we don’t put our crap on other people and stop the cycle of crap.
I hope I'll be brave enough one day to do what you have done 🙏🙏🙏
No one has the answer.
That’s why yoga & meditation in India is practiced 1hr yoga from 4 to 5 am and 1 hr of meditation from 5 to 6 am and that will hold the Dharmic behaviour during the day time

Hi Ven. Amy. 🙏
P.P.: woke/
I am a Christian. I love Buddhist ethics, but think the metaphysics is wrong.
Incredible! So much wonderful help ! Especially the information about helping others, I suffer when I see others suffering…. Thank you 🙏
Animals are sentient beings, just like us. We’re not the same but we share a lot in common. We both have the ability to feel.
I find in my own experiences that karma is seldom that poetic. Rather, it's insidious. What you do becomes habit, and if your habits create suffering for yourself or others that's going to be a stumbling block. It has been generally true in my experience that we aren't punished for our actions so much as by them. I came into this life with some rotten Karma. I don't know how much of my current conditions of life I can so easily and neatly attribute to that karma though; but rather what I notice is that I fall much too easily into my own bad habits from other lifetimes. On the other hand, I have seen habits break, change, and reform over centuries so even though our tendency is to remain the same, we can change! Also, I think a fair amount of suffering is just part of existing in this world of stuff. The bugs we accidentally squish don't have to have been corrupt businessmen in a past life necessarily; there's something fundamentally broken about our level of consensus reality in that it's cruel by the facts of its own nature. Not a hell world but not a nice world either when you really look at it. Sometimes, it's someone else's karma we suffer for. But acts of kindness definitely make it a more tolerable world.
So are children starving today been bad in a previous life?

Is there a way that non-Buddhists can purify?
Yes.
@@lauraflint18 How?
well said
Looks disenchanted with life the basic cause for her choice to be a nun. Needs deeper thinking about life, rather than escapism. Living can be a long, long time, depending on God's will. Hard to assess what will happen then There are stories of wicked older, senoir nuns too who have forgotten about being good persons even.
Thank you.
Thank you, Venerable Robina 😊🙏🧡
Peace and Blessings, Everyone. 🕯🙏☸️
Wonderful to listen to , so eloquent without sounding over the top , all to the point , no beating round the bush , yet so approachable . However what I really like about her apart from being a wonderful and passionate teacher, is her sense of humour.
The best, most describable explanation of what is meditation and how to do it! Thank you Honorable Robina
