Many years ago, I began a course of studies leading to an MA in COMPARATIVE RELIGIONS. Many told me it would cause me to become an atheist. No way!
In fact, it solidified my spiritual awareness of GOD/DESS Almighty.
One adventure in my studies drew me to Tibetan Buddhism. Our teacher is a brilliant, humorous, and worldly man who is the adopted son of The Dalai Lama. His name is Za Choeche Rinpoche.
Recently we discovered UTUBES of Za Choeche's teachings. This beloved guru is still helping me, even though his temple (SANGA) is too far to go to since they moved away.
The most important information gleaned from him is the following:
DO NO HARM.
DO YOUR BEST.
CLEAR YOUR MIND.
These are the most basic teachings of THE BUDDHA.
Thank you for listening.
What an interesting photo of two special souls. Pastor G.
