[@268TERI]

Thank you so much Lama Lena for posting these precious teachings. Wonderful!

What are the little round fish eye things Lama Lena mentioned at 1:03:08?

[@ronroberts8036]

It would be great if we could remember all the details, but, If we could remember only one idea from these teachings for the bardo and in life to prepare, would it be to "dive into" with bodhisattva attitude rather than avoid whatever experience arises?

Bowing.

[@AleXanderLup]

in the Tibetan tradition, there is. :D

[@suzannebarry9187]

Question. As you speak of the Dharani Bardo it sounds the traveler can choose to move on? Itsnt it a process the traveler continues? What triggers the move along?

As they get older, adepts seem to lose touch and not care whether they make sense to their students. As long as they make sense to themselves. they can chuckle and be amused with their own comments. In the meantime, their followers lose track and stop following.

Lama Lena works incredibly hard for her students. I've found this talk cohesive and illuminating and I'm so grateful for it. If you're losing track you might want to check yourself. Also you know teachings are as much about what comes up and the gaps and the directions they drive the mind and spirit as anything else. What's wrong with chuckling? Humor is a sign of intelligence which you seem unburdened by. Just like any verbal interaction, the spontaneaity and the diversions and the incidental directions it takes is where the magic happens. It's all in the gaps here, friend. The words are just fingers pointing at the moon. I am offended by how biting and poisonous your comment is. Please take it down. And in the future you might be better off sticking with Dzogchen for Dummies or some college outline you can crib off the internet to cut out all the humanity and keep it nice and dry with even margins for you. I hope I don't see you here again but don't forget to take the comment down. Thanks.
