Mangala Shri Bhuti - The Link
Summary: At the heart of the Buddhist path is the individual practitioner who integrates the teachings with his or her own experience. Posting weekly since August of 2009, the Link Podcast features pithy teachings by Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche, Dungse Jampal Norbu, and Elizabeth Mattis Namgyel that illustrate the creativity and practicality that are the hallmarks of being a successful meditator. Talks by students of Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche offer an intimate window into the spiritual paths of Western students of Buddhism as they bring the teachings to life in their own unique and personal ways. Most talks in this podcast draw from a weekly Live broadcast on Sundays at 10 am Mountain Time.

When we hear about the emptiness things, we might visualize that emptiness is like a hologram, having form but no substance. However, nothing we think of can actually prepare us for what the real experience of emptiness is like in life. The way our conventional mind works cannot grasp it. Chogyam Trungpa, Rinpoche describes the sunyata or emptiness experience as "a state where things fade out (stet) and future possibilities have not arisen." It also can be experienced as not knowing what to do.

The beginning of the new year is a time when people often make resolutions to change. They might want to quit a bad habit such as smoking or excessive drinking, or to cultivate something such as healthy eating in order to lose weight. But often these good intentions fall by the wayside and are never carried out. In order to actually accomplish one's intention, one needs in addition to intention, a vision.

New Year is a good time to review the past year to evaluate what has worked for us and what has not, what has been beneficial to others and what has not. Since we are human and not perfect, we are subject to errors and confusions. But these can be remedied. If we contemplate our mistakes with joy and without guilt, if we face our errors in judgment with courage and learn from our mistakes, we can have a clear conscience
