Courageous Compassion

From a Series of Tweets by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo:

Good HOT afternoon, Twitterverse from Barnesville MD where I am better and the pack is well. I feel like my body is processing dark energy and I have been able to throw it off.

The thing is to transform it to bliss, light; if one bounces it back to the sender you are as evil as them.

I would NEVER go low and dark like that. There is no place for that in my life, and the planet does not need it. We need pure Bodhicitta.

There is never an excuse for causing harm to others. Lord Buddha taught us this. If we cannot cure, then at least do no harm.

As for me, I always try to take on and transform negativity; I never let it harm others. I pray for the courage and strength to endure.

May the great ancient ones who Protect Palyul especially come forth and protect PURE DHARMA and PURE PRACTIONERS! #stopthehate #Tibet

Happy days are here again!  You are down to earth, and as you become realistic life is easier. Express affection to those you care for, they are looking to you for support.  Good things come from two directions today.  First, solid thinking leads to good luck.  Rules, regulations and governmental organizations favor you.  Someone may leave you a legacy that translates into money!  Second, a new confidence is in the air and everyone is enthusiastic.  Sudden changes leave you happy and surprised!   Help comes from unexpected sources!

There is a rough beginning today, and it seems your objective won’t succeed.  A darkness pervades the early part of the day, then it lifts and things brighten.  You’re tempted to think outside forces have caused this, but consider the role your own attitudes and expectations play.  Sogyal Rinpoche said, “Light must come from inside. You cannot ask the darkness to leave, you must turn on the light.”  Without realizing it, you may have adopted a negative attitude toward your goal.  Turn on your light and see what happens.

Today get out a piece of tape and put it over your mouth!  There is great danger that you can say the thing that starts a fight or blocks a deal.  Or else someone else does.  Hurt feelings and upset are possible and yet if you focus your attention in a slightly different direction, you can create a winner!  Tiptoe carefully through landmines today.  Joseph Addison said, “A man must be both stupid and uncharitable who believes there is no virtue or truth but on his own side.” Be sensitive and flexible today.

Ethical Responsibility of a Teacher

From a series of Tweets by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo @ahkonlhamo

When one assumes the role of teacher, Guru, sensei, whatever,  one has an ethical responsibility to reveal qualifications and identity.  When students follow a Guru there must be trust and respect. The teacher owes the disciple the respect of transparency and character, so the disciple can make an informed choice on an issue that will affect them in EVERY future life. If one is misguided they will spiral down spiritually.

If a person, in their delusion and psychosis believes themselves to be a Guru that does not grant qualities. One MUST see the life and past history and good works so the student can be careful. If the person seeking to teach is ethical they will give that information.

Remember that seeds produce their OWN fruit. An apple seed will never produce a pineapple. A man with violence, perversion and dishonesty will always produce more of the same. It is the seed of their life.   A person may find redemption if they work VERY hard and for a long time to do so. There is NO instant change. One MUST apply the antidote; and after a low life of violence and shame, can only hope to purify their wrongdoing. To jump up and hide identity, claiming enlightenment and instant ability to teach others is absurd and makes fools of the followers.  They are looking for pure accomplishment, not a song and dance. Not kabuki theatre with masks. How will they know?

Now, if one wishes to TALK about Dharma and debate- well anyone CAN do that AND it is a good thing. As long as nothing is hidden and the discussion is open to all. AND the Guru wannabe DOES NOT CLAIM TO BE an ENLIGHTENED MASTER. That robs students of choice and dignity.  It is snake-oil criminal. Period.  If there is delusion, psychosis and a dark violent conniving past it must be revealed for the sake of all sentient beings.

Talk all you want, but do NOT fool honest followers. Some evidently don’t care about character, talk to them, but man, do NOT lie to put yourself up or mix your paint so no one knows what you are. Drop and purify that diseased ego. We don’t need it

And nobody will EVER benefit from your haughty self cherishing. Like a bad little boy playing king. We have politicians for that.

Exercise and energetic activity is highlighted today.  Take action!  Move ahead!  You must be careful not to tactlessly offend others with flip, off the cuff comments or jokes that do not go over well. The feelings of others are most important here. No matter what you meant, if you’ve hurt someone apologize promptly. (Do not say, “You don’t understand!”  Say, “I haven’t explained myself well.”) Your social skills gain you an advantage that your knowledge and intelligence could not.  Everyone wants to be respected.

Excellent interpersonal energy is flowing today.  Men are sensitive and imaginative and women are deep, thoughtful and intelligent.  Both sides are aware of the issues at hand and work together to solve them. You make plans that are realistic, and the work you do today is excellent and may become your standard for the future.  You are still dealing with a thorny problem, and you feel you need positive results to be happy.  Richard Wagner said, “Joy is not in things, it is in us.”  Don’t wait; be joyful now.

A canny, behind the scenes intelligence is in effect today.  Things are being worked out and not necessarily the way you imagined.  Happiness appears during the course of work or a job carefully done. If you have trouble talking with someone you may have presented your case in a way that offended their dignity.  Re-frame your request and try again, using a more humble approach, and things go well.

Inspiration!  Look for it today.  Widen your viewpoint to take everything into account today.  John Ruskin said, “Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.”  This attitude can apply to both outer weather and also inner weather.  Be resilient today.  You will meet many varieties of weather today.  Be flexible, and you’ll float through the day.

A diplomat says something nice that makes someone’s day today!  Could that person be you? Beauty inspires you and you need R and R. Spend time with your partner or people with whom time passes happily; you have that choice.    A persistent sense of running into roadblocks permeates the big picture, so spend time working on the details.  Do keep your overarching goals in mind, however.  Yogi Berra said, “If you don’t know where you’re going, you might end up someplace else.”
