Heart of Sadness (Link #795)
from Mangala Shri Bhuti - The Link · host Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche and students
Speaker: Tara Di Gesu. Tara draws our attention to Dzigar Kongtrul's teaching on "the saddened heart that recognizes the futility of seeking happiness in samsara." She explores how chyoshe, or ‘unconditioned sadness’ as described by Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, holds profound potential. Chyoshe may arise when we notice that we have not followed through on our intentions. When we recognize this sense of being lost and allow ourselves to surrender to the genuine heart of sadness within us, it offers something precious. Rather than imparting a sense a failure, chyoshe reminds us to identify with our deepest intentions rather than with our obscurations. It can open us to genuine joy on the path and strengthen our determination to be free.
