Happy Family for Kalachakra

Dear wonderful friends,
In July 1981 a very historic and important event occured in Madison, Wisconsin, USA. I did whatever I can to get there the minute I got wind of it. I really racked my brains to find a way to be there. Well let me explain what happened in this video for you.
I was reading the other day and I remembered this event suddenly so I decided to share with my wonderful blog readers here. I thought I'd let you know what I was trying to do at 15.
Enjoy....Much Care,
Tsem Rinpoche

At just 15 years old, Rinpoche's sheer determination and love for the Dharma is remarkable. Though Rinpoche encounter great difficulties and disappointments but with courage and perseverance Rinpoche succeeded against all odds. Keeping a promise holds a special significance, as personal integrity is both expected and valued. The world may have change, but the importance of integrity has not.Thank you for this beautiful sharing Rinpoche.

Fascinating. My wife wanted to be a Catholic nun but her mother wouldn't allow her. Wow, such dedication. Looks like Tara in frame.

Dear Rinpoche, thank you for sharing on how breaking promises hurt people and how much it hurt Rinpoche....it really made me wake up

Thanks for telling us and letting me have access to listen. I had a much easier time: I just enjoyed attending church regularly as a child. My Mom gave me rides, no pressure but easy access. It wasn't a Buddhist situation. Unlike yourself, I first learned of the Kalachakra because HHthe 14th DL brought it to Indianapolis, when I lived there circa 2006. Still not being Buddhist, I noticed but did not try to go. I think I may recognize the mandala now though.

HH Dalai Lama gave Kalachakra in Sydney but I didn't go.

why is trying to do good things so hard, but doing bad things is so easy

[@urhart]

Sounds like a very trying test to be true to who you are
