May bodhicitta, precious and sublime, arise where it has not yet come to be. Where it has arisen may it never fail, but grow and flourish more and more.

      About Mangala Shri Bhuti

      MSB is a part of the Longchen Nyingtik and Khyen-Kong-Chok-Sum lineages. (Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye, and Terton Chokgyur Lingpa, collectively known as Khyen-Kong-Chok-Sum, were the heart of the Rimé, or nonsectarian, movement, which did so much to preserve and harmonize all schools of Tibetan Buddhism in the nineteenth century.)

Time for Courage: When Our Weak Links Get Tested

August 16, 2022

In a teaching on the Link from April 3, 2022, Dungse Jampal Norbu raises questions about what resources we turn to when “our weak links are tested.” In particular, when situations provoke outrage, how do we identify and apply a genuinely compassionate response instead?
