Showing Up in Life and Death (Link #688)
from Mangala Shri Bhuti - The Link · host Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche and students
Speaker: Stephanie Kindberg-Velasco. Stephanie reflects on the past year focusing on several Sangha members who've died and also on Rabjam Rinpoche's visit to Boulder, Colorado. Her contemplation of these events is guided by Elizabeth Mattis Namgyel's question: "When are we at our best?" Stephanie relates how the Sangha shows up for one another around sickness and death, and the opportunity it provides for directing our minds away from self-clinging and towards tsewa, for example, through the practice of tonglen. This applies not only to those who are dying but also to working with our own suffering.
