Khandro Kunga Bumma: Bodhicitta, Happiness, and Interdependence (#165)

This episode of the Wisdom Podcast, recorded live as a Wisdom Dharma Chat, features a special guest, Khandro Kunga Bumma. As a young woman, Khando-la had a vision to leave her homeland of Tibet and go to Nepal. There, she met a hermit sage who told her that she had to meet His Holiness the Dalai Lama. After a difficult journey, including major health challenges, she finally met His Holiness and began serving as a medium of the oracle Tenma. In 2012, Lama Zopa Rinpoche introduced Khandro-la to the Maitripa College community, where she gave one of her first teachings in the West. In this episode you’ll hear Khandro-la and host Daniel Aitken discuss: The connection between virtue and happiness. The subtle natural quality of the mind and interdependence.  The difference between compassion and bodhicitta. The importance of trust in your teacher. A collection of teachings from the fifth Dalai Lama on Madhyamaka texts. Remember to subscribe to the Wisdom Podcast for more great conversations on Buddhism, meditation, and mindfulness.
