Fire Flame Meditation (Tummo) explained by Garchen Rinpoche

[@AquanautSt1]

Who else was watching casually then suddenly became completely gripped by the teachings . Powerful !

[@vadim_adi_novikov]

Great Hook of Compassion

[@mattyerge]

His experience shines thru. Truly humbled today that I came across this . And how beautiful he as well learned something new right there at the end and shared that with us as well. To be one of his disciples (students) is a true treasure. This teaching is a precious gem . Many blessings on all our journeys back home.

Exactly so. Came casually, and was just taken. The way he embodies what he says is just complete.

This video reconciles me with KZbin, a place where you can find completely stupid and uninteresting things, and at the same time where there are teachings like this one, so deep and "secret" that you feel blessed and privileged to have stumbled upon them. This Master exudes incredible energy, may he live a very long time and continue to transmit his wisdom-compassion. Thank you so much.

Is there a translation?

[@stone8man]

In my language icelandic, the word húm means pitch darkness, and also implies perfect stillness

[@Ebvardh]

And in my language (Spanish), "nada" or n̄ada as he says it, literally means nothing.

[@ebrelus7687]

Polish on other hand has a letter Ą being the exact full sound Aum/Aom. I believe we do not have any word containing the calm soundless hum except the sound we do in winter when breathing on hands to heat them up ;-) and the name of this activity is huhać. But if to ignore the h as a soundless letter um is a basic root for words as umieć - knowing something after learning or have a skill state, umiejętnie - skillfully, umysł - mind, umyślnie - consciously, knowingly, purposely, in other version u is lost into "o" or "a" like pomysł = afterthought/idea, pamięć - memory. Somehow the root is related to word mięta - mint. Was inhaling mint helping not only in breathin but also thinking? There rest of words around thinking, memory, reason is around wiedza (snsk veda - knownledge, lead), powiedzieć to say is literally after-knowledge-ing. IMO we are lucky to have so many branches of the our old lost PIE language - we can think pieces of lost meanings in irish/scot gaelic, nordic, germanic, italic, albanian, slavic, lithuanian, sanskrit, avestan/iranic. There is a bias & political agenda in reconstruction of the original words but if you are focused on the actual meanings tied together you easily find close words everywhere around north, south, west, east, far east. We are more lucky than Chinese who changed few times the way their words sound completely loosing the old context, meanings & learning their characters you feel as if words were made by a madman randomly adding completely unrelated words making the new words :-) Innovativeness in langauge destroys all remnants of own culture & understanding what it actually is. Variety in one big family is good, in different paths of evolution preserving different archaic forms and creating new but globalisation is like the chinese reforms, 1 big external language makes your langauge dirty, full of words that doesn't fit and basicaly is process of a cultural colonisation. Then you will loose the feel of your language and this process and process of starting thinking in other language will make your own native language feeling alien & not right - what will be the point of loosing own identity & crossing the line without going back.

Stillness is the basis of all activities. Large part of universe is darkness or nothingness.

[@abrahaofranklinmaluf4850]

“Above all, be at ease, be as natural and spacious as possible. Slip quietly out of the noose of your habitual anxious self, release all grasping, and relax into your true nature. Think of your ordinary emotional, thought-ridden self as a block of ice or a slab of butter left out in the sun. If you are feeling hard and cold, let this aggression melt away in the sunlight of your meditation. Let peace work on you and enable you to gather your scattered mind into the mindfulness of Calm Abiding, and awaken in you the awareness and insight of Clear Seeing. And you will find all your negativity disarmed, your aggression dissolved, and your confusion evaporating slowly like mist into the vast and stainless sky of your absolute nature.” ― Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

[@khaladaglarion]

Emptiness, Clarity and Awareness are also the three subtle veil in the Kabbalah. These veils are the aspects of the Essential Awareness, the "self-illuminating flame". Such essence, that resides beyond thoughts are our Essence, who we really are, so to speak, or speaking in a way that is easy to understand. Constant focus on that, as mentioned in the video, will free yourself from the grasps of illusion, shape and so on. Understanding all that, you become aware of all the subtle forces in your body, thus manipulating them, you'll be capable of great things.

[@dharmatatha8729]

You are absolutely right. Hard to find such authentic seekers that understands what they are doing. Do you follow a school or teacher ? If not I would say definitely check out Drukama Teachings. My teacher has a background on Kabbalah as well as other authentic lineages like Vajrayana. Blessings

to be exactly clear: Jerry Garcia is God. He is. to me at least. He showed me the benefits of peace and love and set me on a path where I could find Garchen Rinpoche. Notice they are both GAR's. I love you all. You are me. and whatever good practice you do helps me so much! I don't get to see or hear Rinpoche very often and though he blesses my silly immature state of mind currently everyday, I am truly his worst student because I don't practice or make offerings. I do love though. And am very grateful to Garchen Rinpoche. Just wanted to mention Garcia. He was an immaculate being when incarnate! a very lovely being. A true wonder

Thus is not tummo inner fire practice but to recognize emptiness, appearance and clarity are one.

[@DTTaTa]

Emptiness and bliss

[@dharmatal]

@Dean Miller i am sure you don't expect to recieve the information you mentioned, in a youtube viedo. :) the use tsa and lung is something the teacher personaly transmits to his student, when the time comes. the practice in this video, could be the very begining of that. however i assume, it is free, because it is simple enough for people to do and to benefit from, without getting into the complaxities (and dangers) of channels and tigle.

[@FearlessWisdom]

It is tummo, which is a method which aids in recognizing emptiness etc.

[@michaelkhalsa]

It is definitely a tummo, innerfire practice. There are many ways of tummo practice, and this is a very direct one. We can do all sorts of visualizations and breath holding/stilling applications, and they all come to that place of awakened stillness / or not if missing the absorption into its purity. Notice he is using the navel and warmth, the winds of hum, and analogy of the flame. There are many centers that can be used and many elements, or combinations of elements, each of which are more attractive to different individuals and abilities, that can bring the same resting into the sublime clarity; but they are not called tummo, whereas this is.

[@TheSushiandme]

Need to practice Tummo for the winter.

5:20 "It arises from the power of compassion for sentient beings or from the power of giving rise to faith in the Three Jewels".

That’s why killing or exploiting other sentient life on this earth obscures the clarity of faith in Emptiness, Clarity, Awareness.

[@janeseamore1370]

I feel so pressed to state that at the 8 trainings of the mind teaching HHDL gave in Boulder a couple years ago, was the most absolutely profound logical explanation of emptiness have ever heard. I wonder if it wasn't the greatest explanation ever given from a logician perspective and it was absolutely mind blowing. So much so that I nearly exploded out of my seat and many people cheered. It was also the longest talk without translation have ever heard from HHDL and do try to get a copy from The Tibetan association that put that event together. would be an outstanding pairing to this profound yogic, pith teaching

@@gerardvisci1311 Garchen Rinpoche-la was the minister to the Dalai Lama. you can read about it under Gar Minister search or whatever. Garchen Rinpoche would float HH plates of food. astonishing things. He went to China to bring the princess from there. She brought an enormous prayer wheel with her. Garchen Rinpoche brought that white Tara to Lhasa. That prayer wheel is truly huge and is at Gar Monastery in Eastern Kahm Tibet. It spun continuously except for during the takeover. No body to spin it. Miracle it stayed safe. Someone keeps it spinning always again. Rinpoche puts salve from the heart of that wheel--- the secretions of purest oil imaginable as thick salve. he puts it on disciples heads when he takes a bit of hair from the very crown. truly then puts some of that on his finger and touches that spot. and you know always where to head. you know? sorry long

[@آموزههایاستادبهنام]

the video is profound but the title is completely wrong and misleading. tummo is inner heat which is first part of six yogas of naropa and has it's own philosophy and practices. the correct title for this would be "Nature of the mind and meditation explained by Garchen Rinpoche using candle analogy". I hope you fix it, thank you!

[@FearlessWisdom]

The title is fine. Tummo is a general term which just means inner heat, literally it means the "fierce woman" (Candali in Sanskrit). There are numerous tummo type practices, not just the yoga of Naropa but the tummo yoga of Niguma, various Dzogchen anuyoga practices, Kalacakra yoga, Lamdre, etc all work with the same principles of getting the winds to enter the central channel through inner heat elements (and they explain it in slightly different ways, with different visualizations etc). H.E. Garchen Rinpoche is known for teaching a lot of so called "secret" practices openly as well as for presenting more simplified methods. This Vajra recitation method is one of these simpler forms of tummo practice.

[@آموزههایاستادبهنام]

@@FearlessWisdom what you said is mostly right but I still believe the term tummo is misleading for this video. Here's the title of this video in a Buddhist website which I visited recently, "Buddhist Tantric master Garchen Rinpoche explains an abbreviated version of inner flame meditation, as taught in the Drikung Kagyu lineage of master Jigten Sumgön" As you see they called it inner flame not tummo.
