Best Mother ~ GS19, 3rd March 2021 (Transcription)
Started by Tineke Osterloh. Last reply by Minsun Sung on Saturday. 1 Reply 2 Likes
In the Tibetan schools of Buddhism, a teacher is called a Lama. In this word “lama”, the “la” means “high“ or “best“, and “ma” as in many languages, means “mother“. So, the Lama is the “best mother”, and this idea, that the teacher, ideally even the Buddha, is like a mother, is very widespread in Buddhism. The compassion of the Buddhas is like the feeling of a mother for a child.I remember, when I was a child my parents took me to live in Cyprus. I was an only child and my mother was alone with…Continue
Sotto la melarosa - GS 25 del 7 aprile 2021- Traduzione italiana
Started by ANGELA ROMANI on Friday. 0 Replies 1 Like
Il Buddha Sakyamuni è vissuto 2500 anni fa. Conosciamo molte storie su di lui sia prima che dopo la Sua illuminazione. Una delle famose storie della sua infanzia è quella in cui si trovava sotto la melarosa. Quando era un ragazzino andò alla festa dell’aratura che si teneva in primavera. Era un grande evento per queste persone, che da poco erano diventati agricoltori e si erano stabilizzati arando i campi. Quindi, il festival dell’aratura era una grande occasione e il padre di Siddharta Gautama…Continue

Shakyamuni Buddha lived 2500 years ago. We know many stories about him both from before his enlightenment and after his enlightenment. One of the famous stories from his childhood is the story of him beneath the rose apple tree.When he was a little boy, he went to the ploughing festival which happened in the spring. This was a big event for these people, who had recently become agriculturalists and settled down to plough the fields. So, the ploughing festival was a big occasion and Siddharta…Continue
Nembutsu voor het alledaagse leven ~ GS24, 31 maart 2021 (Transcriptie)
Started by Vajrapala Lut Moerman Apr 2. 0 Replies 0 Likes
In een van onze diensten treffen we de woorden :: "Er zijn wezens met een weinig stof in hun ogen, die hun leven verkwisten door de Dharma niet te horen. Er zullen wezens zijn die het wél zullen begrijpen." En, natuurlijk, wanneer we deze woorden horen, denkt waarschijnlijk een deel van ons: "Ik hoop dat ik een van degenen ben met slechts een klein beetje stof in mijn ogen, ik hoop, dat ik degene zal zijn die het begrijpt." Maar natuurlijk, als we nuchterder kijken, beseffen we waarschijnlijk,…Continue
Nembutsu per la vita ordinaria - GS 24 del 31 marzo 2021 - Traduzione italiana
Started by ANGELA ROMANI Apr 1. 0 Replies 1 Like
In uno dei nostri servizi incontriamo le parole: “Ci sono esseri con un po’ di polvere negli occhi, che si stanno sprecando per non aver udito il Dharma. Ci saranno coloro che lo comprenderanno”. Nell’ascoltare queste parole alcuni di noi penseranno: “Spero di essere tra coloro che hanno poca polvere negli occhi, spero di essere tra coloro che capiranno”. Ma, ovviamente, se guardiamo più attentamente, ci rendiamo conto che non abbiamo solo polvere, ma un intero carico di terra, poiché viviamo…Continue

Podcast GS24: 31 de marzo de 2021: traducido por Nando MarilEn uno de nuestros servicios, encontramos las palabras: “Hay seres con poco polvo en los ojos, que se están consumiendo por no escuchar el Dharma. Habrá quienes lo entenderán". Y, por supuesto, cuando escuchamos estas palabras, probablemente algunos de nosotros pensamos: "Espero ser uno de los que solo tiene un poco de polvo en los ojos, espero ser yo el que entienda". Pero, por supuesto, si miramos con más sensatez, probablemente nos…Continue
Nembutsu for Ordinary Life ~ GS24, 31st March 2021 (Transcription)
Started by Tineke Osterloh Apr 1. 0 Replies 2 Likes
In one of our services, we encounter the words: „There are beings with little dust in their eyes, who are wasting through not hearing the Dharma. There will be those who will understand.” And, of course, when we hear these words, probably a bit of us thinks: “I hope I’m one of the ones with only a little bit of dust in my eyes, I hope, I’m going to be the one who understands.” But, of course, if we look more soberly, we probably realise, that we’ve got not just dust, but a whole load of clay,…Continue

Podcast GS23: 29 de marzo de 2021: traducido por Nando MarilEsta Pascua tendremos un retiro en el que transmitiremos el texto “Sumario de Fe y Práctica”. El texto “Sumario de Fe y Práctica” se basa en el Ichimai Kishomon, el "Testamento de una hoja", escrito por Honen Shonen poco antes de su muerte en el año 1212. Es un resumen sucinto de toda la enseñanza de Tierrapura. En consecuencia, se ha convertido en un texto clave en esta tradición y en algo maravilloso de tener.Sin embargo, en este…Continue

La prossima Pasqua avremo un ritiro nel quale ci sarà la trasmissione del testo: ”Riepilogo di Fede e Pratica”. Il testo “Riepilogo di Fede e Pratica” si basa sull’Ichimai Kishomon, il “Testamento di un Foglio”, scritto da Honen Shonen poco prima della sua morte nel 1212. E’ un sommario succinto dell’intero insegnamento della Terra Pura. Quindi è diventato un testo chiave in questa tradizione, oltre ad una cosa meravigliosa da tenere.Comunque, in questo podcast, non ho intenzione di parlare del…Continue

It's time for all the Buddhists come together for the Gloval Sangha! It's a great idea and I believe it will succeed.

Vandaag is het veertien jaar geleden dat Gisho Saiko overleed. Sensei Saiko was de oprichter van Shinshu Counselling. Hij schreef een aantal boeken en presenteerde zijn ideeën op internationale conferenties en ook via zijn universiteit en boeddhistische organisaties in Japan. Hij verwees naar mijn werk in zijn boeken en toen ik Japan een paar maanden voor zijn dood bezocht, nam hij het op zich,…
