Lojong 2025: Patience: Cultivating Protection through Mind Training-Study Set

Buddhist teachings of Lojong – or mind training – emphasize patience as a core practice of bodhisattva activity.

When the world is full of people and organizations who seek to provoke us, patience is a great virtue. Whether it is resisting the urge to react to the media, or dealing with personal life challenges, patience guards us from acting impulsively and out of habit. By working against this habit of impulsivity, we are protecting ourselves from future repercussions. This preserves our merit in the present moment.

In 2025; Dungse Jampal Namgyel spoke about the value of patience in spiritual life, drawing from the teachings of lojong, and how patience can save our future.
