Came here to learn karate but this was way better ❤

There is a direct transmission 24:43 🙏

Thank you for this. It definitely helps! I have a question. Is the recognition going to be major, like a big event? Or will it be just simple and nothing special?

Thank you so much Lama Lena ,I have been practicing Dzogchen without a licence , I was over the moon to watch the videos-Love,Kim in Canada.If you ever do a live teaching again,I hope to attend in real time and "catch" the intent.I feel truly blessed. Fellow Dharma Students, if you can remember some Dana for our beloved teachers-we are so lucky!

Can someone suggest me a book to learn tibetan from scratch

When we reveal our true nature, our primordial mind(which is all-encompassing)- should we be able to know everything about any thing in the universe, isn't it? For example - to know what is going on in 1000km away, in other city. To know what will come in future, etc. I think this can be a really proof of our expirience. Because guys, let's be realistic- we can imagine and inspire any feeling(like I'm a vast primordial mind) to ourself, but we need a proof. Like, oh you are all-encompassing mind? Okay, tell me what is going on other city in some place right now.

If we continue to sit in open awareness will mental objects eventually all disappear

Mental phenomena and mental phenomena? Will they eventually disappear?

@@davewieder3227 No, awareness has its innate creative energy that manifests phenomena. In the natural state we do not try to manipulate awareness and make it stop manifesting phenomena. All phenomena are primordially pure and perfect, the problem is not that phenomena arise. The problem is in our mistaken interpretation of what these phenomena are. It is only our conceptual thoughts and judgements that picture them as good or bad, as separate external objects that we want to possess or are afraid of. So, once we realize that and abide in the natural state, then there is no reason for us to want phenomena to disappear.

@@eugenei7170 Thank you Eugene. I’m not “trying” to stop the mental events nor manipulate them. I just watch. But the longer I stay here watching the quieter the mind becomes. I know there are always more and more subtle events that arise, and that we can become aware of and this ability will improve with the practice. But I have experienced the other senses essentially shutting down if I’m single point focussed on the events in the mind. What happens when you are going through the death process with awareness?

@@davewieder3227 OK, well, what you are describing is going through 8 levels of jhana as it was described by the Buddha in Pali Canon. The 4 higher jhanas are absent of phenomena. If people meditate in these formless states and get attached to them, they may end up reincarnating in arupadhatu (formless) realms that are not considered to be good reincarnations (you can read about that in the Buddhist cosmology literature). In Dzogchen we do not focus only on the events in the mind, and we don't use the method of one-pointed meditation. Instead, we keep our focus wide open as open awareness of any arising phenomena (mental or sensory) without accepting or rejecting any of them.

“Truly you could practice in hell, except you’d probably forget!” 😂

BTW if anyone has back problems and can't sit up straight, try a gaming office chair
