Enlightenment is the complete acceptance of change. With this attitude, practice as well as you can. If it helps to think that you're practicing for all, then do that. But there's no need to practice with a sense of burden. All you need to do is use these means to accept change.

To really sit down and tell ourselves things, such as, ‘I am inherently pure and decent,’ can be difficult... If we have a hard time accepting these truths, when we are in crisis and have doubt in ourselves, then this is a clear sign that we need someone to guide us. #Karmapa

For the past ten years, an accumulation of the practice of Gyalwa Gyatso has been held annually at the Bodhi Path centre in Renchen Ulm, Germany to commemorate the passing into Parinirvana of His Holiness the 14th Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche on the 11th of June, 2014.

It is important that we keep our minds calm, that our minds are at peace and not disturbed by emotion. Otherwise, if our name or image is attacked, we may feel hurt and give rise to unnecessary commotion. #Karmapa

Inner Wealth is a term used to describe your innate values of compassion & wisdom. We are so used to connecting wealth to material resources, that we have lost sight of its relevance for other things, such as loving kindness & other non-material values. #Karmapa #InnerWealth

The purpose of life is to understand life. When we understand life, we see that this life is about benefiting others. There is nothing more, nothing negative or mysterious - it is plain and simple: to benefit others. #Karmapa #wisdom
