Transcript: 

The Samaya is in order to protect the Samaya then you have to do some kind of protection practices. So it's going to talk about that. Protection. To generate the precepts inside of your mind thoroughly. And then in that way you can also protect the Samaya.

[01:00]

And the number is to remember the number of the Samaya, you know, 13, the main branches and so on and so forth, to remember the number. then probably even if you couldn't gain all of the experience but maybe you will not take into one kind one of those one of them mainly one kind of the realization or experience therefore you can also you know, protect the Samaya. And then there is a book.

[02:04]

The last one is to protect the Samaya by generating the special respect and Samaya, the inspiration that we view to the Guru. Those are the four kind of outlines here. They're being inspired by the Guru? Inspiration to the Guru, the faith, devotion to the Mugi, to the Guru, you know. Reverential aspiration. Yeah. Aspiration. Aspiration. Yeah. This devotion. Yeah. Yeah. Right. And first of all, first one is, and is Niamsha to Lama Gombatans.

[03:07]

And the Niamsha is the actual practice of meditation on the, whatever you're doing it, Samadhi. on the subject of the sadhana or whatever you do that practicing the path meditating on path and when you do the samadhi what you're doing in samadhi actually is to meditating the path of the at various stages of the visual pattern or the stages of the sadhana, let's say, ahibaja sadhana. And then jiedok is the after-meditation period.

[04:13]

After-meditation period is called jiedok. at the time of the Samadhi and the After Samadhi, all this time, had a thing in the Kumbhara-Sogba, such as meditating on the deities or the Catholic thingings in concentration.

[05:16]

by reciting, which means that your time is passed through that samadhi and visualization of the deities. So if your time mostly passes through that, then there is no negative opportunity. would not be there. Continue is just conscious about it, and then they would not be here so much, so much, think. So that's the strength. Then the next one is the Namdaan Jeosu Timber. remembering of the certain number, numbers of Samaya and the general and the Pacific Samaya, written for Tsambal, Tsutung, Chubhshti, Putin, root Samayas, etc.

[06:35]

That's called Namdang. Namdang is the numbers. Gangdaan is also to remember the general and the specific vows or something. And here it says, which means the beginners, the beginners that continue to the number, the numbers of the Gangdaan's number, yeah. Twenty-some-ayas. Twenty-some-ayas. Which means to memorize to your mind or memorize to yourself all these numbers from the beginning to the end, right?

[07:35]

And then memorization about the judging means that for the beginners you just learn how to to criticize these Samayas of the General and the Pacific Samayas. You remember that? The first one is to criticize the Vajra Acharya. So you have to make that decision

[08:42]

yourself, I shall confess, I shall do this, I shall remember all the members, categories, each of these Samaya will remember everything so that if you start yourself in this way also protect, you know, protect all those Samayas. Then the third is just by generating one experience through this meditation, I shall also protect. Which means these nyams are not talking about not common types of experience, but the specific experience that are generated without mistake that comes from the remaining between the generation and completion of these two types of practices.

[10:08]

From there, whatever it is set, one experience. When you say experience. Yeah. 282. 203. Then. 203. That's a kind of an expression analogy. Which means if you have a jewel, then naturally your property is not there. The property is not there.

[11:12]

Property. You have money. You have money instead. Exactly, exactly. And... So, what is poverty? Poverty. [...] Oh, I'm sorry. If you have a jewel, then you don't have poverty. Yes, sorry. Like... Do you have a jewel? P-O-R [...] E R. E R. T Y. T Y. Seems like that.

[12:17]

Okay. Uh, Uwa. Uwa. And, uh, Nanki means it naturally. Doroinu means it. You know. Not there. A band. With their properties, a band. when the natural is upset. Fourth one is which is that protecting the way of special generating the devotion to the Lama is fourth one is the Lama from whom that you received without a wrong... I'm sorry to say correctly.

[13:31]

...correctly received initiation. The ways to generate is to make Dushi. Dushi is the kind of regulation. Yeah, regulation. If there are the Lama who is giving a deity initiation, so therefore you have a Lama. He is not only a Lama, But there is also no difference between the deity that you receive in this nation. It's called Lagvantha. Lagvantha is you receive the total deity. And that is the meditation. That is the fourth ways to protect your broken samayas.

[14:36]

And there are four types of the Samaya. Four ways to protect. Oh, this is to protect from breaking. From breaking. Not broken, yeah. But keep breaking. Right. Well, it's the ones that broke. Yes, I think it's more like that, you know. Once you broke, then you do... And then this is still part of it. Protect from point of view of to promptly Accordingly, the words of Lama, whatever he said, he or she said, you must have a problem with doing it.

[15:48]

But that way, we can also pretend. Then there's another one, or this is another, what is called a proverb, or these things. It's a kind of example. If the king is pleased, it is easy to unforgiving the criminals. That's what you understand, right? Then it's kind of a quote here. Quotation, you know. Ishi Tuba is the name of the text. Wisdom accomplished something that Ishi Tuba is called.

[16:50]

That says, All among all of the Samaya. The superior, supreme, the best supreme is to worship in lava. And Lama Chuba choice in this. What is that is... Samadho is the kind of container, the precious container of the Buddha. Pantantini Duba is the name of the text of the Dantra.

[17:55]

It is according to other information. This particular information is showing. In other words, the relationship with the Guru is very important. And so, it's a set in the text. Just some source, that's a set. So, that's the Buddha's teaching. Yeah, yeah. Samadok is the same script. Samadok is the... Samadok.

[19:00]

Samadok. Samadok. Just like that. What do you see? Samadok. That's right. This one is David's decline from the Samaya. It is a protein. from the Maya, they're what you used to. Nyanbe, I don't want to give a lot of these classification. That is, well, this is saying is, first thing is the ways to decline.

[20:09]

Part of decline is saying it's almost like losses or losses of Samaya is there are many ways to lose possibility of to lose your Samaya. First one is something that decline of the Samaya by realizing for experiencing the suffering of samsara it generates the suffering of samsara so we're dividing the different kinds of breaking of samsara so this is the kind of break which causes misery in samsara not too sure about that The sounds here is a complete number.

[21:12]

Yeah. So it's a degeneration of Samaya. So we're going to have... Degeneration of Samaya by generating the suffering of cyclic existence. Well, it's not by generating. It's by... It's which causes. So what's the result of that Samaya break? Okay. Okay. The first one is the Samaya break which causes the misery in samsara. The next one is the one which causes you to be delayed for a long time on the path. So there's two kind of different things. Okay. Let me read first these two types. So there seems to me the saying is, could be one could lose Samaya because you had a difficulty in your life, in your worldly life.

[22:19]

You don't want to deal with anything. And then the second is, it takes too long to reach the enlightenment. Yeah, isn't that? Yeah, go ahead. So I broke my Sumaya. That's right. How do I divide that? Well, there are Sumaya breaks, which cause me misery in this life. What's the result of that break? Oh, I'm miserable. Okay. Then there are Sumaya breaks. What's the result of that? Oh, I'm traversing the path. I don't seem... It takes a long time. I don't have any boils or kind of any obstacles to... But my path is obstructed. My spiritual path is obstructed. Those are two different kinds of results. So this division is how do we divide the semi-breaks?

[23:23]

We divide them based on the result. One is kind of a samsaric result. One is a result of my traversing path. So, you see what I mean? Okay, that sounds interesting. That is very interesting. So Rinpoche, you're saying that breaking Samaya... Well, here's to me, just basically, the use of Samaya, what the cause of the decline of Samaya is, looks like it's talking about... The one is... That would be the instrument. But they're going to explain it in just a minute. So let's see. Yeah, let's see. Does anybody care to take a little picture? Are you? The native speaker? Would you? Would you wear your mouthpiece? Okay. You're all over, Richard. No, I like to hear it. I think you guys are going to have to do a debate.

[24:26]

I like to hear it. And it could be obviously wrong with me. And... The first one is, the first one is, the first one is, now he's talking about, maybe you are completely right. Okay, that's kind of just saying is, decline of the 14 root commitments that was given to at the time of the VAS initiation. And the branches of the...

[25:27]

but it didn't say Yalato, which is also something that has to do with it at the time of the vast nation, right? Tenamle Nyamna, if that is occurred or declined, one of those Nyamna, but it doesn't talk about it, describe what is exactly above it, but it's strictly going through there. If it is declined from those Samaya, and then the name is Jebu, is the maturation of the act, of the karma, is obviously goes to , to be born, just born in one of the three lower realms. Okay, now this is it. I got some kind of really new idea, what he's saying is.

[26:30]

This is the first title he's saying is, the suffering that you experience because of some sort of suffering you experienced, such as falling into three lower realms, that caused to be break or lost of 14 root samaya and some other eight branches at the time of the fast initiation work. That's why you can experience the samsara experience. So the key thing is the mingidrid. So the ripening of the results. Right. That's right. Well, I would say ache right now, you know.

[27:42]

And that is clear, yes. Okay, got it clear? The law I'm suffering is you got that from the, what I'm saying is, what I'm saying is here in the text. The result of breaking the values is that you go to the lower true values. Exactly. That's what I'm saying in the text. Okay, then he is describing what the second is the taking too long in order to reaching the next step-by-step he's talking about okay then it is says here is the other 19 of Samayas declined I don't know the 19 of them

[28:54]

Oh, they're written on Tamzik, and, uh, probably those, right. Uh, you know, besides, there are some more Tamzik specific Tamziks, you know, you know, Tamzik, five, five, five, you know, Buddha. Tamzik, Samaya. I don't think it's Samaya, commitment. You get the Samaya. We're talking about the issues, the subject of the, uh, the commitment to broken. And, uh, And what was that? Maybe a little bit heavier. If that is happening, It is abstracted to make it slow down for you to .

[30:09]

That's right. That's it. Oh, well, you know, . You have to do that. Basically it's not so complicated. We went through them when we went through the initiation. We went through them. Ringe tamjig is called, by the way. Ringe tamjig. Rikna means our family. Rikna. R-A-G. Rikna. R-A-G. Rik is a family.

[31:13]

Rikna. Tamjig. That's right, Tamzik. Is that sometimes pronounced Damzik? Yeah, Damzik. I know a woman named Damzik. That's what I was just about to say, you know, Tamzik in KDK has one lady, Tamzik, Lama Lodru's niece. Lama Lodru's niece. The five family... Right. You know, you just made a lot of things that we can give to people. And... So now we've got to clearly that it takes too long.

[32:15]

Why it's not... I'm getting so much, you know, I try to meditate every day. I try to, nothing is happening. So that means you are, something is wrong with your, they are one of those, uh, 19 or 26 of something is, needs to be picked. It's kind of a mechanic, you know. It's all shooting here. Turn off the carburettor. Turn off the carburettor, wire, wire is detected, you know, blah, blah, blah. And, uh, Then they, um, given, what is given? Given, okay, then the fourth kind of underlying, uh, is, if it is nyamna, nyamjagangwa, that is nyamjagangwa, to repair the right, repair the break. Uh, repair the break. It's called a,

[33:17]

Niam-cha-dang-wa. Niam is two different terms. Niam, one word serves two different meanings. Niam? Niam. Niam is also experience. And Niam also means decline or defect. It also declines. Yeah, it declines with somebody. It declines. [...] Gung? Gung is to restore.

[34:20]

Repair. Repair. But it's only to use, repair, only for use for this technical term, but you cannot use this word to the glad, to repair. Oh, what? Unlipa. Yeah. Unlipa. Yeah. Unlipa. Gung. Gung is repair? Gung. Gung is repair. G-U-N-G. Gung. G-U-N-G. Gung. G-U-N-G. [...] G-U-N- K-A-N-G or G-A-N-G You know, there is also called the K-A-N-G which is very well known in the Magala South. Magala. Rattful deities, as always, have a K-A-N-G. At night, we have a Beat the drum and didn't burn the thing. Oh, to maintain the... Maintain the Samaya, it's called.

[35:23]

Do you beat the drum? Well, the practice of joining around the area at night, every night. Not only beating the drum, but you are also saying the prayers. What you should do drum for at night? Well, day and night, we need to do it day and night, you know. All the time somebody's doing. Any time, George says any time. I want him to be children. We have no time. Like Isaac George. He knows so well. Yeah, he knows George. He knows about it. Why? Why? Well, he said he knows. He knows. George is becoming the world's greatest Western authority in Chud. I'm Chud, Winston of World, to cemetery, to cemetery.

[36:25]

You can be Chud. Okay, that is the topic is that how we should repair So what is broken? 281-94. 281-94. I'm not too good to get back to this. Okay, the title is here. 283.

[37:31]

Line 5. Okay, it is a logic counter. The practice is ways to repair. Now he's explaining the Doji Kanto.

[38:34]

Doji Kanto means Namathoji. Doji Kanto The meaning of doji kanto is also encompassed with the gurus. Then the Lama itself is doji kanto first. Then Yishi kanto, the wisdom kanto, is the We're talking about it. Lungu, which is Babo Gagaya, and Mamo Kanto. There's a Mamo Kanto. Mamo. Mamo Kanto. Which? No, Mamo's are like elemental people. They protect the English.

[39:39]

They bring these limits. Oh, okay. What would it be, like, witch? Oh, wow. Witch is not something. There's a good witch and a bad witch. It's not a witch. It's an elemental protectress. Well, it's somebody who can do... Do you mean somebody who can do... Who has power to do magic? Yeah, some female form of things that goes out and... And it is a witch with a W. Yeah, the art model is always associated with... How do you spell witch? W-I-T-C-H. There are categories of witches, the high witches are Lamokanto. They call them Lamoro witch at one point? At one point. And then the other is called the Tulgu. Tulgu? Tulgu.

[40:40]

What's mamukandru? So obviously mamukandru is not really eating meat. Yeah. Well, in Tibet, we have a park in Bamo. Ah, usually it's meat. Shasa. Shasa. Shasa. I don't think we're a Bamo. I'm a meat, meat, I find, you know. Cannibal meat? Yeah. Or just animal meat? Well, there's something like a... which is, they have their own community, right? Yeah. And they also... but they're creatures of the people.

[41:44]

They do have some special things. Oh, you mean they're sacrificers of animals then? Animal. Well, not animals, but human beings. Human beings. Well, only they're really bad. Bad ones. Yeah. So you're saying that Shashakundra would... Shashakundra is more, really, yeah. Cannibal. Cannibal. Cannibal. Ah, okay. Cannibal. But they are the guineas. They are so so there are types of cantos. Okay. The types of cantos are you wanted to count it. Bozi cantos, Bama cantos, Yishni cantos, Mamon cantos, Shaza cantos, Penzi cantos. There are so many cantos. Types of cantos. Now the next one is Penzi cantos. Penzi cantos, the Bojipinto is like a USR, you know, it's too... Go to the same class, same teaching. Kamsuk? Kamsuk. Samayana Kamsuk. Kamsuk is like royalties in France.

[42:47]

What? Punduk is relatives and punduk. So humans? Humans or kamsuk? Well, not human, but in the class, in the one mandala of initiation time. And once you receive one mandala, then you call it doji punduk, you become a doji punduk. So the Tamsi Khandro With what, another kind of cadre? So let me show you this verse they quoted.

[44:00]

It's from the Vaja verses. And for Sarah, it's page 10 minefield. All right, good. Can you tell me? Mine's left. That's it. All right. But that, what more were saying, all the Samayas, Samaya from protection of commitment of the Samaya under the Vaas initiation,

[45:10]

Here's a tonsillism. We were talking about how to repair Samaya and then we went into this discussion of all the different chandros. So this word says, if you want to repair the broken So you have to petition the kings? I think we're going to, in a minute, talk about what you do. Let's see. Okay, there's specifically talking about the fanaya that we received at the time of the vast initiation. Right?

[46:15]

Got that? Then also, such as ways to pleasing the Lama of the Bible, kind of ways to making pleasing by putting a catalog, or maybe... I have desired objects. Yeah, desired objects. No, no, no, no. This one. Well, sense of orphans. Yeah, sense of, five sense of orphans. You're thinking of the peaceful, the abundant, the powerful, the magnetizing on it.

[47:41]

These are not plus four. These are just the ones with your everyday. Well, it's better than that. It's so easy, you know. But, uh, means image. Forms. Any kind of forms that you can offer. House. What kind of beautiful things? Little things. Okay. Statue. Statue, body, you know, everything. Da is any kind of music, musical instrument. And da, he, how do you tell it? Nowadays, it's hard to please learn, not alone. I have to get it harder and harder.

[48:45]

With music, you mean? Yeah, special music. With the right CD. Yeah, CDs. I have to get special music. And the roll is food. You have to take them out of llamas. Lamas, they don't grow too much, but the roll is so far okay. Japanese is alive. Shake the meat. Shake the meat.

[49:47]

We've been to Shake the meat. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm sure we've [...] been to Shake the meat. Yeah, I'm sure we've been to Shake the meat. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm sure we've been [...] to Shake the meat. Yeah, I'm sure we've been Yellow, clothing, bag out. Roll, red shots. J.J. is talking about the clothing. Clothing? Fancy clothing, golf setting, clothing. But you got some nice threads with you. I got it, I got it. Oh, that's a nice one. That is a nice one. Was that a new present for me? Yeah, I got that in Taiwan. Virgin, Virgin World. Beautiful. Very well. That's so low. Yeah, it's not a... I don't know, it's medium time or... Yeah.

[50:59]

Awesome. And, uh... any kind of... any kind of... any kind of... to touch one type of... Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Nice technical touch. And you do the same. So it's very important for the poor students that they cannot offer. Then they need to. Mentally. Mentally. See that's why that at the beginning of initiation we say mandala offering and we spread the rice and the rice is that you have to imagine that the collective of a whole world in a universal jewel offered to the Lama and to the Lama Sangha.

[52:11]

Yijitun it's called. Right. Here's what I'm doing. It means inside and outside of the wafflings. She's out. You know, wafflings and outer waffling. And... That's why travel starts. And then everything is sort of super, which is

[53:14]

to recover. If you do that five ways to please the Lama of the Vajrakandu, then everything is reversed. Sochi means recover. Everything is alive. I'm sorry. You make these five offerings to And then that prepares the floor. that the sign of the repair of the Somalia is comes to into the dream a good dream such as or something is taking care of good eating good clothes and changing yourself and everything how something is part of the body is kind of same things comes out it's the sign of the 12-8 coupon and

[54:41]

Then the , remember that we finished, the Samaya of the vast initiation, the physical initiation, and all those things are done with a pleasing alarm, but then the contemplation of the psychological factor of the things that was wrong. And that is confessed to the then strictly Yishikanto. You confess to Yishikanto. You confess that Yishikanto is in front of you, and then you confess, [...] Now that the quick way to his saying is here is the is much more subtle, because it's a psychological thing.

[56:05]

So quick way to to this Jew that is then through the practice of this remember that is a related term. Oh, okay, okay, okay. Everything is mind. Everything is mind. The mind is like an illusion. The illusion that The illusion lacks, the illusory mind lacks self nature.

[57:05]

So first is everything is mind. Everything is mind, right? Second is the mind is like an illusion when the mind is an illusion. And the third is that illusion lacks self nature. And the second one is? It's like an illusion, but the mind is an illusion. That is the act of it. Okay. I hope so. I hope so. That is a pretty good thing. If you turn your mind into yourself with thinking of those three things and then contemplate that, conclude in that nature, then it purifies the psychological

[58:21]

to fact. Then there is a so-called Jejur Tamsik, which is Jejur. What does it say to Jejur? The subsequent behavior, or the post-meditational activity. Post-meditation. So there's three views of the post-meditational activity. Now we're onto a different subject. So the third line, second. So we have the, if you degenerate those samaya that you received during the vase initiation, or if you degenerate those samayas of concentration, now we have a third topic, which is if you degenerate those samaya which you are associated with your behaviors after meditation. Right. That's called , that if that is a decline, then you can confess or please the mamacatu.

[59:34]

That is meant to Google mamacatu. Then in order to do that, follow that sentence. . Meditation to complete, up to the perfection level. It is called meditation. Chalmers. Chalmers are contracted up to that. Chalmers, to take something to that level, to the perfection level. Eating lots of a nam nam, That's what he combes, where they very diligently meditate with all the paths of such as like healing, a generation stage, etc.

[60:42]

By doing that, If you are able to generate samadhi such as appearance and the void and the two-in-one, the appearance of objective appearances of phenomena and the intrinsic nature of the void is in two-in-one, if you understood that, into your meditation. If you do that, then you are recovering the post-meditation, some I have broken, some I have recovered. So you really give in the practice, build up, yeah, that's kind of right.

[61:49]

And then you In this dream of the dream, when you do it, you have to make sure that your philosophy or the viewpoint of that is that phenomena, appearances, subjective appearances, and subjective avoidances. Subjective means there is a consciousness of the mind and the matter in two and one, in the nature of voidness, if you understand that, then I guess it's easy to clear out the postman existing habitual things. How does that please the mamakando? I don't know that. That's... I don't know. Mamakando is really... it's a misunderstanding of the objective thing. and so it's kind of one will understand the gift of the gift of the gift of the gift.

[62:56]

What exactly did you just say? It's understanding the appearance of that gift of the [...] Because she's a witch, she's no good. She's blah, blah. So we're being dualistic if we just think of her that way. That's why we are still half Hindu. So with that, Samaya, this applying that witch, object of the witch there, and subject of looking at, is two in one. In that ultimate sense. Then he understood. Being able to look at the mitochondrial without subjective feelings.

[63:56]

That's like we are seeing a lot of training the bees. Like training dogs, training horses, and training a lion or a lion trainer to understand the nature of it. We usually look at it as fear. They're understanding the nature of the beads. Yeah. So then they become relaxed. Uh-huh. Because they know you understand it. That's right. Yeah. So you... Conquer is not the right word. Yeah, that is kind of like a... Yeah. Tame them. Tame the big wolves like a lion in the forest. It was almost hard to conceive but to deal with it, but the people do. Uh-huh. Similar to that way of applying.

[65:03]

If it is decline with the rest of the 11th Samaya or Commitments, then you can confessed or placed with a shasakato. Usually shasakato here is talking about the tododagbo. Like the tododagbo is the master of the cemetery, which usually leaves the cemetery. And the rest, they left over 11. Oh, the remaining. Remaining, 11.

[66:08]

And then it says, okay. Then you can also Well, Shasa Khandro and Kamsi Khandro, which is among the Bajor sisters and brothers, to make that place and make peace, what do you call, consolidation? Reconciliation. [...] Meat. Yeah. Meat with a flesh eater. Yep. What are you going to say? Well, I guess I'm trying to figure out why you would confess to the flesh eater. What's the... What's the dynamic? Because a cannibal is the worst thing that could possibly...

[67:15]

I have to confess so many things. I don't remember. [...] I have a text. But anyway, we will discuss that next. Why don't we just print this next one? It's not what it says. Oh, okay. Oh, yeah. Tell us.

[68:16]

Flesh and blood. Flesh and blood. You can measure these things. Flesh and blood is usually invisible, right? And all those are invisible. So they're supposed to live in the countries. And they have flesh-eated blood drinker, you know, so therefore you measure that. So you can measure that. And then for the real human beings, we can throw parties and make them that way to reconcile the relationship.
