Longchen Rabjam (1308-1363), is a great luminary of Tibetan Buddhism. He was highly skilled in all aspects of scholarship from an early age and excelled throughout his life in the practice and accomplishment of the Dharma. Regarded as a great Dzogchen master, Longchenpa had many pure visions where he was given direct instructions from Guru Padmasambhava and is recognised as an emanation of Vimalamitra. Longchenpa's prolific writings have made him one of Tibet's most renowned and precious teachers.

Longchenpa is to Buddhist doctrine what Nisargadatta is to Advaita Vedanta. These two are the best “fingers pointing to the moon” imo

May all be free from suffering

[@knowirds209]

I keep coming back to this one......so grateful to Samaneri, Longchempa and being alive to learn this

[@Always-There]

Took 2 hours to listen through this 1 hour recording, going back to replay each part! Ultimately ‘This’ has to come from the inside out, by staying in the Heart and allowing all else to Be. Its like the only way is ‘the way of NO ways’ but paradoxically, it takes practicing in various methods to find this out. 🙂 Find Being with meditation then drop the search and just stay with what you found - Self. Wonderful again - thank you Samaneri.

[@ghuyakalika]

Perfect for Buddha's full moon day! ❤ Thank you Dearest Yayasāra ❤

[@jeffnirvana3474]

Samaneri Jayasara, I echo what many commenters have already said about your wonderful contribution to the understanding of the fundamental and pithy ideas concerning Mahayana Buddhism and Buddhism in general. Indeed, you give us the precious, silent space between the words where sunyata finds its true home. It wasn't until recently that I discovered Longchenpa, who cuts to the bone like a master surgeon, choosing his words carefully, using samsara to point at nirvana---or more importantly, using samsara and nirvana to point where there is no pointer and nothing pointed at. I've been up all night with headaches while going through marijuana withdrawal. Lately I've been getting high and trying to use the effects of marijuana in an attempt to somehow find that "place", that no-place where the lens of samsara gives way to the lens of nirvana. But I have failed and failed and failed again. The allure of samsara, thought, and verbalization has too tight a grip on me. I know I'm not alone. I know that >95% of practicing Buddhists are also lost in the maze of samsara---most not even understanding the beautifully profound, dependent interplay of samsara and nirvana. I was wondering if you have ever read "Emptiness, a Study in Religious Meaning" by Frederick Streng. Great book. Also, "A Net of Fireflies" by Harold Stewart---a collection of Haiku, "English-ized", yet containing the raw spirit of the original Japanese. Examples: "In my ten-foot bamboo hut this spring, There is nothing: there is everything." ---Sodo "With tender impact on the icy air, The peach-buds burst: their silken petals flare." ---Ho-o Anyway, that's my two cents---headaches and all. Thank you.

[@alkelin]

Thank you

[@michellet.7835]

I hope you are doing well in your quitting of marijuana. It was the last substance I kicked, most difficult for me . 🙏

[@baguiobroom1]

May i suggest reading a Christian Myatic... Luisa Piccarreta... non dual in essence..

[@jeffnirvana3474]

I'm feeling swimmingly verbose today. So sit back, relax, and enjoy an incoming onslaught of colorful, verbal word-fishies. Because I'm more and more convinced that it is just about impossible to completely lose focus of perceived and conceived phenomena, and because I am genuinely fond of certain aspects of samsara, I'm beginning to understand nirvana/samsara in a new way: We are all ultimately enlightened, but we are bogged down in the vicious fog of seemingly inherent 'things' thinging. Sunyata is always there though...enabling phenomena to become phenomena. I'm speaking conventionally here, realizing that words have their limitations, but I see samsara/nirvana as a figure/ground dynamic. We can participate in the joys and sorrows of samsara with the realization that nirvana/sunyata permeates all. We can and we do use samsara to tune itself so that hopefully the sorrows become less and less. I'm no fan of the idea that joy and sorrow are part of some cosmic dance with everyone holding hands and singing kumbaya while shit is flying all around them. This makes no sense to me. Disregarding pain and sorrow because of its ultimate nonexistence does not wipe away the perceived tactile conventional existence of pain and sorrow for billions of living beings. Ultimately, sunyata/nirvana has no need for sorrow and pain (or for anything else, including itself). But sorrow and pain should not be marginalized simply because of its ultimate nonexistence. (comment initially posted then deleted because it's a little off topic and pretentious...then reposted because, what the hell?)

[@michellet.7835]

@@jeffnirvana3474 I understand this. I always think "the truth stands still, it is us who stray" Yet we need to stray, to learn, to explore, to grow, to mistake, to evolve, to create.

[@ernestweber5207]

You pick the best background music for your readings, however this one was exceptionally appropriate and transcendent. It was pure flow.

[@asokobhikkhu6744]

Thank you for these readings. They are perfect. The choice of texts is impeccable. The pace of reading, along with the unobtrusive background soundscapes, allows the wisdom to sink in and resonate. It allows for the arising of awe and grace in the heart. Much gratitude to you.

[@viaesta]

My favorite is when I end my nights listening to your readings of heart guru Longchenpa. 😎🙏🏻

[@alfreddifeo9642]

Thanks for sharing this, wishing love, grace and courage for all to be open and look, feel and be here.

[@pieterdrummond7091]

Every phrase reframes my view with so much gratitude. "The spontaneously present intent- The all-creating monarch-Everything free in its own place." ☯️♾️☯️

[@TheNativoamericano]

Thanks for this precious jewel dear Jayasara. This Master 😍💖✨✨

[@miketheman6243]

Please keep giving us these lessons. I’ve listened to most of your Ajahn Cha recordings(more than once) and am following your narrations. I’m not a good meditator, but you’re helping a lot. After two years I discovered your channel. My wife who has been meditating for 40 years says my weak monkey mind is getting stronger. I don’t feel like it but it must be doing something. My enemies are easier to get rid of, still hard but not as hard. Samaneri, I’ve been trying to be aware of ALL my actions, walking, eating, etc. it wears me out but my wife says it will get easier. Is she right? Thank you.

[@SamaneriJayasara]

😂🤣😂🤣

[@SamaneriJayasara]

Yes, like anything, the more we practice the better we get. However, the key is to practice resting and relaxing in your Natural State. Abandon striving and things can unfold with ease. Sending much metta and all blessings on this auspicious day. 💜

[@elizadaphne5501]

Wife is right, once things begin to dissolve there is no stopping it ❤

[@monstersaint]

Once again you've hit a grand slam! This one is so good for me I'll have to listen to it more than once.

Lovely Sister Jayasara: This narration is just beautiful! I actually had an amazing Yoga Nidra many times from it. Especially enjoyed the background music: Tell me, who authored wrote it, and where can I listen to it by itself? What is the title of the music? Thanks in advance! - Brother John. 💜🤗🙏🕉️

[@SamaneriJayasara]

Hello Brother John, you can find the details of the music under the video descriptor. I generally try to put the details there if I have them. All the best
