Words Of My Perfect Teacher: Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche Interview

Documentary: Words Of My Perfect Teacher (2003) Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche | Part 3
From the streets of London and New York to the World Cup in Germany to the mystical mountain kingdom of Bhutan, Words of My Perfect Teacher follows three students on a quest for spiritual enlightenment. Buddhism teaches that to walk the path toward true enlightenment you must have a teacher. These students are ready to be taught the path, there is only one small snag: their teacher.
Meet Dzongsar Khyentse Norbu Rinpoche. He may be one of the world’s most eminent Buddhist teachers, but it’s a job description he slyly rejects at every turn. A citizen of the world and as fascinated by soccer and filmmaking, Dzongsar Khyentse constantly confounds all attempts at easy categorization.
Taking its title from the writings of 13 th -century Tibetan Lama Patrul Rinpoche, the film’s point of view is inspired by Buddhist philosophy - which says that we can’t really change human behavior until we learn to deal with our mind. The mind is the starting point of all suffering and the source of closed hearts and entrenched views. Dzongsar Khyentse teaches by defying easy definition, forcing his students to turn inward and confront their own expectations and desires.
