Karma: The Future Is In Our Hands With Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche

On the special occasion of Lhabab Duchen-celebrating Buddha's return to Earth following teaching dharma to his mother in a heavenly realm-we’re sharing a teaching by Mingyur Rinpoche. In this video, Rinpoche explains the importance of interdependence and karma. When causes and conditions come together, a result will follow, so we should do our best to help others and engage in positive deeds.

Rinpoche, I had a deathly fear of a chance of bad health, bad mental health or ailment, and of death. And because of your teachings, I am better than ever; friends with my fear and understanding the world so as to not fear it. I am not a buddhist, I am an atheist but I shall always be your student.

[@billion888sf]

Bad things always happen to me all time and the matter how hard I try to change it never succeed but anyway I try not to commit any negative KARMA in this life, hopefully someday there will be a thing good happens to me.

[@Calligraphy-dilipaweeratunga13]

Do not worry you may experience bad things all the time, yet you decided to continue in doing only good. Therefore you are a precious being. One more thing, trust the great Teaching, nothing lasts forever, so your tough times will end !

A dilemma of human existence is our inability to determine if we are at the cause or at the effect of external events.

[@ommanipadmehum4975]

Erase words bad or good of you vocabulary forget it within (outside you will still conventionally use but its different inside yourself) : you re now an eternal student, an explorer, an adventurer ! 🌞 Its all about learning, you discover a day, you discover a night, then an other. You discover sun and moon, sky and ground, everything that was missed cause of lack of attention and interest. Now youre in the zone. This is the place you want to go back when things tough ! How invincible are you when its all about learning, great alchimist uniting all things in one way !

[@kalpanagurung9009]

Precious guru 🙏🙏🙏

[@RobTheDrake]

I used to lie to myself and be honest with everyone about most things. Then I got sober and decided to be honest with myself and everyone always. It changed everything for me. Drugs and alcohol almost destroyed me and my chances at happiness, but I have my life back now and am doing great! I owe you and all sentient beings my best effort in this life. Sometimes I stumble a bit with my emotions like anger, and resentment. But meditation and faith have brought me so far that I know everything will keep getting better, if I put in the effort. You are extremely radiant, loving and wise. Intent is everything. I really appreciate what you do for all of us and your advice. Namo Buddhaya

How much good karma i cummulated to be blessed with such great teaching ❤🙌

[@buddhaexhumed9922]

Very educative. I love his videos. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.

I am temporarily staying with my elderly parents to help them out. They are both 'negative' karma - basically miserable, cruel, etc. What I struggle with is not letting their negative karma rub off on me, since I'm exposed to it on a near-constant basis.

[@pranyaphookan]

Hi there! Though i understand the situation you are in and send all positive energies to you. But rather than getting worried about their bad karma rubbing off on you, why don't you try to create an environment with good karma that runs off on them? Remember that dwelling on the fact that people around you are in negative positions doesn't create anything positive for yourself. Become a witness to your environment and focus on the ultimate good. Hope this helps

I will not work on my self. I am surrendering my sense of self to the present moment and emptiness of it. No karma can affect it. I use to do my best to satisfy people I loved, but it turned they always had judgment of me. They called me selfish and so on. Now I am doing things nice for me. I am trying to be the most selfish as I can. I am helping only myself.

There 2 truth, absolute and relative, absolute yes all phenomena including thia body because of our mind, but on the relative side we already born in human realm, we have this human body and its all condition, so when suffer or dukkha because of hunger, don't wait until dying, please eat, and use our relative life for goodness for others

Since we are all connected wouldn’t people have a shared karma as well as individual karma? I think this proves true for karma like environmental choices, a small group of people contaminating a lake could mean suffering for a much larger group of people.

[@iloveyellow7214]

I must confess Mr. Mingyur Rinpoche... I have never believed in karma. I thought it was just some existential ♪ ♬ ヾ(´︶`♡)ﾉ ♬ ♪ wuwu Never really understood what Karma is.

"That the world is impermanent, bound up with suffering and subject to change. This is the danger in the world." -Buddha THE DANGER OF NOT BEING IN CONTROL I.E., DUKKHA DUKKHA IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH KARMA AND IT NEVER WILL BE!!!

[@kayakMike1000]

Karma is not a mysterious force or energy that makes the universe a fair place. Karma is the effect of a cause. Its Newton's second Law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. For example... You could cheat and actually profit from that cheating, the karma is in the profit just as much as it in your future decisions to cheat again.

[@Calligraphy-dilipaweeratunga13]

Do not try to interpret Dhamma with existing laws used to describe physical reality. Two reasons, 1. You will come across things that can not be explained physically/physical laws; things which are metaphysical. The Dhamma is beyond science, if you continue what you are doing the sure end is nothing but frustration. You will loose the cause, the motivation to practice Dhamma. 2. Even Laws of science will change in the advent of new discoveries. They are just means of describing the universe, not the path of liberation from the universe, but the Dhamma is. So, choose what do you want.

[@codysork5244]

Thank you @Calligraphy for pointing out this misconception. I used to have this sort of rationalist idea of karma, but that is not Dharma. I would also like to add that the reason our negative actions can appear to have temporary positive effects is only because of our past merits, which are being exhausted by wrongdoing and replaced with the causes for suffering once that ripens later.

[@codysork5244]

There is a great commentary on karma in "The Words of my Perfect Teacher" by Patrul Rinpoche. I highly recommend it to anyone watching this video, especially those who are new to Buddhism or still learning about it.

Dukkha means : unhappiness, suffering

[@TheSoteriologist]

This thinking is _massively_ erroneous: *just because B may **_depend_** on A, this wouldn't make A the **_only_** thing B depends on !* Therefore, even if the future depends on karma, that doesn't mean the future is in our hands at all, not by a long shot !

[@evendeeper217]

You're setting these poor souls up to suffer even worse when the inevitable pain of aging and death comes about because you're telling them to blame themselves for it. Good job spreading misery, holy man. Lucky for you the Law of Karma is a lie.

Sounds like you should listen first.

Please drunk somewhere else, karma is very consistent, god concept is not, make sins everywhere and suddenly clean because the big boss like you so much, sound like nepotism hahahah, no instant shortcut bro in this life, u have to do somthing if you want the result

[@study-su1gc]

No no not blame themselves for aging but beware of your action in your youth as aging is inevitable eg let's say you happen to pick up a bad habbit by saying just today I do it not tommorow Now that most of the times transforms to reckless abuse of whatever it is like let's say yt shorts or lazing around too much like eating too much or drugs etc etc now you may feel like it's all ok and no one's gonna know but it affects you in the long term when it comes to fruition the bad habit like you want it more so you suffer more so it's not saying aging is cause of ur past karma but early aging or pain in joints or diseases like kidney gone bad or liver is bad or heart problems or smt else see these are gonna happen as we age but it may happen too seriously or too early and that is cause of our reckleaa actions of past ( youth) And that's how you should see it The buddha also told to not try to understand why someone is in a situation like why is someone suffering or why is someone in blissful times cause ( we may misunderstand and disregard the present karma or the past karma, this is my interpretation) we should just know the cause and effect and therefore use it as a basis for our every current action
