… I go for refuge

HH Dudjom Rinpoche

“I go for refuge and take delight in the consummate expanse of your wisdom mind.
All sacred, supreme objects of refuge, please pay heed!
Through cultivating and training in the awakened mind,
May the glorious potential to empty the depths of samsara be achieved!

I completely confess all accumulated faults and obscurations of the body, speech and mind
And pray that all victorious ones do not enter nirvana but remain
The root of all virtue is dedicated to all beings
Together may we attain fully enlightened Buddhahood.”

~ Dudjom Lingpa / H.H. Dudjom Rinpoche

The Essence of the Path

 HH Dudjom Rinpoche

Those with faith will go for refuge;
Those who have compassion will have bodhichitta;

Those with wisdom will gain realization;
Those who have devotion harvest blessings.

The Root of Dharma

img_3591

Peaceful self-control: the sign of one who’s heard the teachings!

Few defiled emotions are the mark of one who meditates.

Harmony with others is the sign of one who practices.

A blissful heart is witness to accomplishment.

The root of Dharma is your very mind.
Tame it and you’re practicing the Dharma.

To practice Dharma is to tame your mind
And when you tame it, then you will be free!

~ Dudjom Rinpoche
