Chapter 6: Patience
Stanzas 98-99


In these next two verses we are looking at how we receive praise, or criticism; how when someone praises us we can carried away in the glory, develop pride and forget our path of renunciation, because if we indulge in adulation it develops an attachment to the samsaric way. If we are on the receiving end of praise it shouldn’t feed our hunger for recognition, but be accepted with humility, with an understanding of the way even good things can change in a flash into something negative. On the other hand, being on the receiving end of criticism even when it is not intended as such can be hurtful and generate hostility, so we should also look for the truth in what is happening, recognising our personal fault-lines when they are exposed to us, be thankful to our enemy for the reminder, and leave aside our angry hurt pride. This is true patience.

If we dwell on the criticism, we become resentful, and forget our own potential. There is no room for martyrdom here. It often happens that a negative interaction comes through misunderstanding, and knowing this can help us to look compassionately on the other person. Having that attitude may even generate a new resilient friendship.

Chapter 6: Patience
Stanzas 94-97


Here Rinpoche summarises the three kinds of Patience, and talks about the temporal nature of sounds and the need to develop a deeper understanding of the source of our misguided view: that another persons’ praise for ourselves and our loved ones is a genuine cause for happiness. This he says is a misunderstanding, because if the root of our happiness comes from the mere words that are devoid of intellect, or from the joy of the person who is uttering the praise, why then should we distinguish between the joy felt by someone who praises me and my kin and the joy of a person praising my enemy? Why would we hurt if we hear of an enemy receiving praise?

If we rely on the words of praise or criticism from another person as the source of our own happiness or pain, we are depending on something that is inconsistent because everything constantly changes.

To find genuine happiness we must let go the idea that contentment comes from outside ourselves. No-one else can know what is best for us, and neither can I know what is best for another person. Everyone is different, so I must be patient with my own and another persons’ expectations.

Session 26
Chapter 6: Patience
Stanzas 92-93

 

Rinpoche begins this session reminding us to look after our mental and physical wellbeing, because it is important to maintain focus and have stability in times like these.

Continuing the practice of Patience, in the following verses 92 and 93 we are examining the effects and consequences of giving in to anger and hatred. We naturally want to defend ourselves and loved ones and those we consider kin, and to punish or retaliate in some other way when we feel threatened by attacks from others or when it seems our enemy is being given credence or unjustly praised for what we see as negative behaviour.

There is more to consider than is apparent on the face of any interaction and when we feel wrongly accused there can be an urge to adjust or justify our actions to save face, and that can create further problems and misconceptions. There will always be criticism, so it is advisable to stay true to yourself and not be swayed to anger by the opinions of others.

A castle made of sand will crumble, nothing lasts forever. Similarly, thoughts and emotional responses only last as long as we give them power. Look for the truth in a slanderous remark and learn from it. Developing kindness and understanding through patience are key to a healthy mind.

Chapter 6: patience
Stanzas 90-91

In this session, Rinpoche talks about placing the focus for our Patience onto situations where we or our loved ones are experiencing negativity from others––even while we are attempting to do something that could be seen as praiseworthy. Most of us enjoy admiration and recognition, but is it in our best interests to dwell on the bad will of others and let it dominate our mind-state? How should we respond when one person attempts to turn others against us through making defamatory remarks or otherwise physically obstructs us, should we retaliate with anger or does that just feed fuel to the fire?

It is not through anger and hatred, which will only serve to work against us, but through remaining patient, being true to ourselves and keeping positive intention firmly in mind that will be of benefit in the long run.

Cultivating Patience Through Obstacles

Rinpoche has now completed his synopsis of the first volumes of the text and in this Session returns to the actual verses, beginning with verse 87, which examines the pitfalls of rejoicing when unhappiness befalls ones’ enemies or when someone gives help or is of benefit to those people we consider our enemy.

This hostile way of thinking, he says, causes harm and creates a tendency to become joyless and entrenched in negative thinking. This flies in the face of the basic aspiration and ethos of the practice, which is for all beings to be happy, including our enemies.

In this negative way of thinking, we are creating our own hell realm and so by changing our way of seeing things we are giving rise to transformation. In the short term, a change of thinking is relatively easy and can bring about positive impact to our relationships, in the longer term, with more deeply rooted problematic relationships it is more difficult, but a simple change of ones own mind can bring a positive result.

Thus the practice of patience in this type of situation is a very powerful purification.

Chapter 6: Patience

How to cultivate the Paramita of Patience: the different kinds of Patience.

Rinpoche starts this session by reminding us that the situation we face now requires that we keep ourselves grounded and continue to keep practising, to develop the qualities as we have always been doing. Although danger is now more apparent, in another way, circumstances haven’t changed. We need the same vigilance.

He lists the 72 objects of our patience and asks that we extend our awareness to the immediate causes and conditions behind situations that test our patience, to try
to understand the suffering of a person when we feel tested and to try to see what is causing them to behave in a particular way.

When we observe from this broader perspective, we are also practising the first three Paramitas, which in turn will help us to practise patience.

Bodhicharyavatara – A Synopsis, 4: Patience

21 Bodhicharyavatara - A Synopsis 4-Patience.mp4

In session four of the new teachings on Bodhicharyavatara, Rinpoche summarises Chapter 6 and discusses the first of the three aspects of developing Patience:

Understanding the importance of letting go anger and hatred.

Rinpoche advises that where we see injustice and express anger, it is often our expression of compassion that is frustrated by not knowing how to respond correctly, so we need to recognise when that is true for us.

He says further harm is caused by responding to injustice with more anger and distinguishes between that and the times when anger has a purpose and a place; when it can be an act of compassion. However anger is like fire, he says, burning everything in its path, eventually it creates a disturbed state of mind and self destructs. It is very important to deeply understand how the partisan attitude created through misguided anger is dangerous. To understand the wider circumstances that have caused hatred and seeing everyone’s point of view helps in the arising of compassion within ourselves. This broader perspective, he says, sows the seeds of patience.

In the following sessions Rinpoche will discuss the remaining two aspects of the teachings on Patience. These instruct on cultivating and practising the different kinds of patience and result in developing deep respect for all sentient beings.

He concludes with a dedication, and prays that the pandemic will soon dissolve.

Bodhicharyavatara – A Synopsis, 3: 1st and 2nd Paramita

In this session Ringu Tulku completes his review of chapters 1 – 5 of the Bodhicharyavatara, which have been taught in more detail in his previous teaching series and are available to watch  in the Courses section of the Teachings Archive.

The purpose of the book, he says, is to provide a pathway to liberation from suffering through inner transformation. When we practise these instructions, it can bring a freedom that is informed by wisdom. In turn we see how generating awareness of our actions and responses to lived experience will help us develop a compassionate attitude towards others and help them to arrive at this understanding. It is a teaching on the Six Paramitas.

Rinpoche says the Bodhisattva training is essentially the Eightfold Path. This is a Mahayana text that uses a different approach: the Paramita of Generosity as taught in the first three chapters on Bodhicitta and is developed by making offerings and practising dedication. Chapter 4, Carefulness helps cultivate an understanding of the consequences of our actions, and Chapter 5, Vigilant Introspection trains us to have the capacity to act without need for regret. Guilt, he says is not helpful.

This completes the summary of the first 5 chapters and the first two Paramitas., Generosity and Conduct.

You can also view the teaching on the Chapter 6 page along with the other teachings on this chapter. All previous sessions on Chapters 1–6 are available in the Courses section of the Teachings Archive.

Bodhicharyavatara – A Synopsis, 2: Bodhichitta

Checking for previous playback, please wait. The video will load shortly.
19 Bodhicharyavatara-A Synopsis 2-Bodhichitta.mp4

Rinpoche outlines the structure of the whole text:
The first three chapters describe the meaning of Bodhicitta; chapters four to six give instructions on maintaining it; chapters five to seven show how it can be increased, and the last chapter of the book is on the importance of dedication.

In this session he brings a contemporary perspective to the first three chapters. It points to what Bodhicitta means in the current crisis: when our basic needs for survival are not ours alone but relate to every being on the planet: he says the principle elements of air, warmth, water and air must be kept in balance; and we must reconnect with the deeply intuitive feelings of love and compassion which are essential to wellbeing. The corona virus is teaching us, it knows no borders and is highlighting what is most important–our common humanity–and the pettiness of conflict.

Rinpoche discusses the awakening of fearlessness and resulting stability that arises when we act out of love with a common purpose, for the greater good of all and with no expectation. When we awaken compassionate fearless attitude it is empowering: it has always been there and it is imperative now that the future is so uncertain.

You can also view the teaching on the Chapter 6 page along with the other teachings on this chapter. All previous sessions on Chapters 1-6 are available in the Courses section of the Teachings Archive.

18 Bodhicharyavatara-A Synopsis.mp4

Rinpoche is now continuing the course on the Bodhicharyavatara. Each session will be around 15 minutes long, and there will be a new teaching each week. Rinpoche will comment on Shantideva’s text in a direct and simple way, that enables and encourages everybody to make it meaningful in our own life and to use these teachings for the benefit of ourselves and others, both now and in the long run.

In this first video Ringu Tulku Rinpoche dedicates his teaching to everyone who has been affected in any way by the Covid 19 virus, in particular those who are tirelessly working to save lives.

Rinpoche gives an explanation of the title of the text, Bodhicharyavatara which he says originated as an impromptu talk by the 8th century Indian saint, Shantideva.

He tells how it was subsequently translated into Tibetan, becoming a major Mahayana teaching in the Buddhist tradition. Rinpoche describes these teachings as a blueprint for the development of our innate qualities, which if followed as directed will transform our minds and generate within us the qualities of a Bodhisattva, helping ourselves and others to find freedom from suffering.

For those who want to remind themselves of the teachings given up to now they can do so in the Courses Section of the Teachings Archive.

In this talk Rinpoche also shares some anecdotal advice on helping protect ourselves from the corona virus.

You can also view the teaching on the Chapter 6 page along with the other teachings on this chapter. All previous sessions on Chapters 1-6 are available in the Courses section of the Teachings Archive.

Launching The Ringu Tulku Archive

On August 29, 2017 in News, Projects, Teachings

Dear Friends,

It is with great pleasure that we announce the launch of The Ringu Tulku Archive.

This website will become a repository for all of the teachings given by Venerable Ringu Tulku Rinpoche that have been recorded since January 1990 when, at the invitation of students and friends, he first began to travel in the West. He has given countless teachings during that time, on all levels and on all kinds of topics, according to whatever is requested and whoever is listening. The range of topics is immense and varied, interesting for newcomers to Dharma as well as long term students. Rinpoche’s command of the English language means the teachings are given and received with incredible ease – as if, he often says, “I’m chatting with friends while on my holidays”. Even repeated requests for the same topic are responded to with a wonderful freshness and delivered as if for the first time. He has said that what we are receiving through these Dharma teachings is very, very rare and there are actually very few places in the world, even in Tibet, that this level of instruction is given.

What an extraordinary opportunity.
