The meditations develop a deep inner richness and lead to a non-artificial and unwavering mind where every enlightened activity can unfold. Our group is part of more than 635 lay western Diamond Way Buddhist centres of the Karma Kagyu School founded and directed by Lama Ole Nydahl. the 17th Karmapa Trinlay Thaye Dorje.

Meeting the Buddha presents the life and legacy of the 16th Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje—the head of the Karma Kagyu “lineage of practice”, one of four main schools of Tibetan Buddhism.

The film captures the remarkable presence of this spiritual teacher, known as a Living Buddha and the King of the Yogis.

How does mirror-like wisdom express itself in everyday life?

𝐋𝐚𝐦𝐚 𝐎𝐥𝐞’𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫:

If one simply lets anger pass by without getting involved, clarity arises, which is completely radiant. We call it mirror-like wisdom because it shows everything as it is, without adding anything or taking anything away. I would say that today the best expression for this is “keeping cool.”

You see how things come and go. You know that the emotion wasn’t there before and won’t be there later. So why get involved with it now? You just keep cool; you take it easy; you rest within yourself, in you center. You are simply the “fool on the hill” who watches worlds emerge and vanish, as Paul McCartney sang. But at the same time, try to stay completely clear and conscious of what’s going on, and, of course, try to share the experience with others.
