    What a great teaching! The 3 marks of existence: suffering, impermanence, and selflessness or the contingent nature of all phenomena, are immediately recognizable moment by moment regardless of cultural context, and apprehending and developing familiarity with those is liberation. So direct and elegant! Emaho!

      @@wumaofiftycent-eq3bf It is expensive in the sense that you have to be able to afford to travel to the centre and to take time off work or take your vacation time to do the retreat. A lot of people can't afford even two weeks a year.

      I read an article written by a lower-class man who described his struggles with affording retreats. He called Buddhism the "Upper Middle Way". Every country is capitalist now and communism didn't work so we need more income equality.

    Hello, finally the time has come! Khyentse, དུས་ཚོད་སླེབ་སོང། Hello, There are university scholars (like me) who say that Shambhala (in the Ngorpa Kalachakra) is the Mongols' Empire in the West of Tibet, (Ngari, Burang, Mustang Lo Mantang.). The Mongol Empire stretched from Kailash to Pakistan, to Irak, to Turkey. Dear Khyentse, would you like to shoot a film (in Normandy, Verneuil-sur-Avre,) with me about finding (....through the Ngorpa Kalachakra...), Shambhala?

The Kalachakra of the Ngor School announces there will be a Demon King called Krinmati and the King of Shambhala will defeat him. I'm sure the Antichrist Obama is Krinmati. Khyentse must reveal this to the world, he has that power and he has the duty to have that role and responsibility.

    DJK keeps it real. He knows the world is changing quickly and that Buddhism has to adapt - a great deal. Especially in the age of AI and biotechnology.
    I contrast him with, for instance, Alan Wallace, ironically a Westerner, who seems to be convinced that Buddhism will transform society with a few thousand people going into full-time retreats for ten years and a few thousand more doing months-long retreats. No, Alan, it's not going to work. Alan also seems to live in a strange sort of bubble where everyone is well-off and can afford to travel to his teachings and take time off from work or away from family to go on retreats.
    I totally do not get this vibe from DJK.

      @@inside_bhutan Thank you! Frankly, the lack of discussion of these huge trends in Buddhism in the last decade or so has been concerning me, especially considering that Buddhist prides itself on being forward-thinking and socially engaged. The only other teacher I've ever encountered who is confronting these trends is Shinzen Young, and he's almost 20 years older than DJK!
      I've had chronic illness for 15 years, mostly psychiatric, and doctor-caused addiction, and I've had to use every resource out there to survive. Traditional practices have been hopelessly inadequate. I've seen the cutting edge of medicine and what is going to unfold much faster than we think, and the enormous implications this has for the Dharma.
      Perhaps ChatGPT has finally shaken us out of our collective stupor. Jack Kornfield recently had a discussion with Sam Altman about AI, and he's the same age as Shinzen. So for the younger teachers, there's no excuse. DJK has a brief video on AI that came out a few months ago where he says it is the best thing that could happen to Buddhism!
