Description
Although it may seem counter-intuitive, the basic nature of strong emotions is wisdom. Anger, jealousy, pride, attachment, willful indifference and other emotions all seem to be inherently negative, and, from a relative perspective, are destructive to ourselves and to others. Fundamentally, however, these “upsurges in the luminosity of mind”, as Rinpoche refers to them, provide an opportunity to see the wisdom of ultimate reality. In these talks, Rinpoche presents the same stages of practice he presented in his Emotions teachings in 2006. These stages are mindful gap, clear seeing and letting go.

These teachings are engaging, delightful and profound. Five talks
