But then I have the sensation, that channels/energy get mixed up. Causing restlessness, turbulence. Even in lion pose. Maybe fear of falling? Suggestions? 00:41:24 Why are so many of the high lamas wearing tinted glasses or sunglasses, even while inside and giving a teaching? Like Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche and the Dalai Lama 00:44:44 About addiction. 00:47:02 How should we plan a personal retreat? Should we use some form of divination to pick the date? Should we always consult the lane for permission to retreat? 00:53:13 How to handle disagreement or conflict in the sangha? 01:00:07 Would oh there we go would you say becoming a mother is a hindrance to Enlightenment or a pathway towards it? 01:04:56 Dorje Purba mantra during urination or defecation? 01:05:25 Can I only go to the pure land of my yidam or can I go to DewaChen even if my yidam is Tara? 01:07:04 Tara for wealth 01:12:25 How to choose between so many practices? 01:13:44 4th wang transmission? 01:17:10 Walking meditation 01:19:13 Wearing's one hair in yogi position? 01:22:37 Can I practice dzogchen with you and a deity practice from other traditions? 01:27:03 More on addiction 01:28:00 Land-Spirit offerings one last question that again didnt hear well. it's about practices. merging buddhism and other stuff. adding my fave gatha from The Diamond Sutra: "Who looks for me in form who seeks me in a voice indulges in wasted effort such people see me not."
