Talk about the time I
study religions, since I was almost 11, I have study almost
everything from the Esoteric, Witchcraft, Alchemy to the
Christianity, Islam, Sufism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Toa, Budo, to
finally keep my heart to the Tibetan buddhism, Tao and Budo.
In buddhism I have
start in the deep roots of Theravada and Zen, in Tibetan Buddhism I
took refuge in Karma and Drikung Kaguy and Dzongchen nyingmapa
lineages, keeping my Kagyu view I define myself as Rime
practitioner, I keep my deep roots kagyu and take teaching from all
the lama help me to go forward into the path, my main point is at the
end have take refuge in fours schools of Tibetan Buddhism.
Later on I was in deep
poverty and I was practising what my lama told me but I found some
deep help by a Sikh guru who was taking care of the Sikh temple in
the town I was living and give me the best ever teaching for our
time, “whatever path you like to practice you must free yourself
from the daily obligation Sikh are all business man for only one
reason practice the way and helping the community” that advice have
sound me really important in our time so I have start to work toward
my financial freedom, taking Marpa teaching on my side, later on this
I deeply realise for my view there's no Karma or Drikung Kagyu as all
the Kagyu schools got the same lineage master as Tilopa, Naropa,
Marpa, Milarepa then the Lineage master, for me was clear that I can
have teaching from all this lineage masters as there are all Kagyu so
for me now there only Kagyu.
All this story to come
on what's happening to our world today, some of us make war in a name
of whatever and kill innocents, so others following stupid
ideological politics and destroy holly temples in Lhassa, some others
again are brothers living in same country do what do the Nazy in past
because it's was written the land was there land.
Humanity are complicate
animal and like to follow what he trust is the path of happiness,
whatever you believe in or not you still always make choice of your
own believe system, if we take the North Korea and Red China they
believe the communist will heal the world of the horrible people are
capitalism, but in the way the make slave Tibetan people, North
Korean people are brain wash since day one so that clearly not the
path of happiness.
Take another view in
the west who not believe in path still believe in science, but that a
believe and we think rational and live in our material world in some
way that good, we are not doom like the North Korean or Red Chinese
and not fools, but in another way, all kind of divorces, all kind of
murderer all kind of poverty are still in the modern world so do
this the path to happiness, do science solve everything no, even
science got limit.
So another way there's
those who's looking for something God or Enlightenment whatever but
whatever the label we practice there's two master lead of this
compassion and wisdom, if there's missing one of the two maybe we
should ask ourself do I practice the right things, that big
difference between the two other path before ideological don't have
any wisdom and compassion, scientific have material wisdom but not
the deep wisdom of the buddhas and compassion there compassion is
limited.
Whatever path we
follow, we not follow blindly that another mistakes of those who
follow the path and get back the ideological path, we have to study
and not understand by our knowledge or academic knowledge but
understand by our heart deep in our heart, some religious text as the
buddha teaching, the tao or guru granth sahib and koran are not text
we can understand just like that, we have to learn it take it deep to
our heart and meditate and we have to put in application but at the
end that same things if at the end that lead to sufferance toward
self and others may we should check again this teaching and meditate
more, until we clearly understand what is real compassion and wisdom.
We all look for
happiness no mater what the way we take we all looking for the same
things, but whatever path you take to look for happiness if at the
end you are even less happy and also others around you are less happy
check your path because maybe you are not in the right path to
happiness.
