- This wonderfully clear and profound teaching entitled, "Dzogchen Practice in Everyday Life" has often been attributed to H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. However, this teaching is a teaching Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche gave his disciple Rigdzin Shikpo while still staying in Scotland. You can find the full version of this pithy teaching plus some information on the background in "The Collected works of CTR" book number 1, selected writings.

I'm reposting this earlier recording for improved audio mix and for clarification about the authorship of this particular teaching. It can be found in my Dzogchen playlist.
Rigdzin Shikpo gave me a hug once. Maybe that constitutes empowerment? 😀
@@markdowning7959 Embrace yourself, and the buddah is embracing you. That is empowerment.
Is this discouraging concentration/ breathing techniques? It also seems to discourage Tibetan Buddhist Phowa meditations that have a clear goal ejecting the consciousness from the body etc. ? Thank you!
@@sensitiveartistguy In some ways yes, in some ways, no. It all depends on how one relates to the very natural process of just breathing. The Buddha taught anapanasati (mindfulness of breathing) as a key meditation practice that can certainly take one to full liberation. It is both a preliminary practice but can also remain a complete practice. However, if one does not engage with the breath with wisdom and picks it up as a "technique" that "I" am doing to get something or somewhere and one is tense and forced in their practice of natural awareness in order to get concentrated, then it is not right practice or right view. The beauty and brilliance of The Dzogchen approach is that it cuts to the very core of delusion in meditation practice. We are left standing naked and empty with nothing to grasp onto and it strips away the ego clingings of the doer or "successful meditator" who has something to do. In this way it can be the most direct path, and is paradoxically the most simple and most difficult. If one is asking what one should "do" or not do in meditation practice then one has not grasped the the utter subtelty of Dzogchen.
Thank you for marvellous work and unusuall effort.
Dziękuję 🙏
I prayed, I asked , surprisingly so suddenly through tears ,all answers arrived
When IT is seeking me, why doesn’t IT find ME? :)

“what you are looking for is what’s looking.”

Turn attention towards what’s looking, towards awareness.

I was taught to let go, let go, let go and to trust that what I’m looking for is with “me” all the time because I Am That.
Only mind says different and the mind is not “me.”
The body is not “me.”
I use self inquiry
“Who am I?”
“What is “me?”
“What is “I?”
To find out what I Am, it helps to see what I am not.
Also me:
I don’t know 🤷♂️
I just trust the I Am
Keep my inner house clean; free of resentment, greed, hatred, etc and I help others.
Love
Serve
Remember who you really are.

I hope that helps

Im listening to this while watching the Gemenids fall... laying on top of my van in the middle of the desert...
"We should develop a feeling of opening ourselves up completely to the entire universe"
I think you just discovered Space! 😲
Good man David 🙏
I love the van in the desert description.
With Guru Padmasambhava's Grace and Guru Longchen Rabjama teachings there are no questions left.
“Above all, be at ease, be as natural and spacious as possible. Slip quietly out of the noose of your habitual anxious self, release all grasping, and relax into your true nature. Think of your ordinary emotional, thought-ridden self as a block of ice or a slab of butter left out in the sun. If you are feeling hard and cold, let this aggression melt away in the sunlight of your meditation. Let peace work on you and enable you to gather your scattered mind into the mindfulness of Calm Abiding, and awaken in you the awareness and insight of Clear Seeing. And you will find all your negativity disarmed, your aggression dissolved, and your confusion evaporating slowly like mist into the vast and stainless sky of your absolute nature.”
― Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying
Thanks. From Scotland.❤
recognize present awareness: practice present awareness: self liberate by present awareness.
As it is.
You are the light of the world thank you sister for these precious gifts they help so much and bring clarity where there was confusion,many many blessings
We are so grateful to you for putting in all these compilations from great masters.
Possibly the most profound instruction I have ever heard. Thank you for posting this powerful video. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to provide even modest support for your work. You are changing the world. You are changing me. Thank you.
Thanks so much Sameneri! You’re like sunshine on a cloudy day! AUM Shanti!
"Each moment of meditation is completely unique and full of potentiality. In such moments we will be incapable of judging our meditation in terms of past experience, dry theory, or hollow rhetoric."
I have been contemplating this phrase with the word meditation replaced with life. 🙄😑😑😑😌
A treasure beyond understanding…. 🏵What a wonder, to feel so deeply the knowing of every word spoken, as if it’s all I’ve ever known… even though in actuality, it’s my first time hearing it🤍 The gratitude is inexplicable dear Jayasara; may you infinitely be blessed and guided as you are … and may all sentient beings benefit in and through this incomprehensible yet subliminally palpable grace 🙏
Namaste so glad i found u ! 🙏
These meditations are riveting thank you Samaneri for putting devotion & inspiration back into my practice. 🙏 And that last line “Simply plunging directly into meditation in the moment now with our whole being free from hesitation, boredom or excitement is enlightenment.” 🤯
Thank you my practice is deepening each time I listen to these, contemplate and integrate…
This instructions are superb, clear and strike the vital points. They need to be propagated. Dear Jayasara you’re doing this right here, Thank You! Because of this, I bow down to you and pray that whoever comes in contact with this teachings will be a suitable vessel to uphold them and propagate them throughout the ten directions for the benefit of beings ✨⚡️💎🌈🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️❤️☸️
Homage to the Guru and the Triple Gems!
I don’t know if the teachings are getting clearer or 'I’m growing’
But this was simplicity expounded
And there are flowers popping open on the bush
With the fragrance of Peace, Contentment, Wellbeing & Happiness
Not to be possessed or owned, only enjoyed
as I walk in this Garden
There is a song that goes well with this post. You know I like music, it was prophecy, my teaching in the early days. Sometime I am going to share about it-the past |%- so you can understand how much these teachings mean to me, been a ‘Long And Winding Road’ that leads to my home. I’ll make it brief as possible. It just seems to me you should be able to enjoy the fragrance of the garden you water, you don’t have to eat it.
Love is a Rose but you better not pick it, only grows when it’s on the vine
Hand full of thorns and you know you missed it
Lose your Love when you say the word mine
I want to see what’s never been seen
I want to live that age old dream
Come on boys let's go together and live that dream right now
Some songs, some lines in song where n are now again Alive for me
While I’m posting here in this vain, like to say this.
You says on your page in biop thing, it’s just my little voice, to the one who knit you together in your Mother's womb. Your voice, delivery, devotion, Love permeate every word, the way it was designed n destined to. You love what you do, it’s obvious, you were made for it. To ice the cake He gave you an Australian accent. I can tell you here in the US that is very popular. High class golfing(lol)always almost when I listen has one, at least a British voice.
Yes sometimes we have to swim upstream. But shouldn’t there still be a flow, a desire so deep longing, a knowing. Isn’t that how these teachings started here and for you?
I’ve asked a couple questions. Doesn’t seem to be much flow, desire, a knowing. That’s fine I now understand. See this happens pretty spontaneously, I learn as I go too. Just an urge n very basic thought of what to say to start. Sometimes a few words at a time my memory is bad, always was not to worry. That's one reason I cant spell, had no interest because memory was bad. It’s a blessing too, can't rely on it, but the worst stuff is deeper than regular memory
The bible just comes out of me, so full of it, says
Not many wise, not many mighty, not many noble, not many strong. For God has chosen the weak and the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. That no flesh glories.
Wallow in the peace not the need, as you well know
Just trying to lift you up in some small fashion, for the magnificent lifting you do.
For we are not ignorant of the evil ones ways,
but they are tricky yet for me,cause there is still a me obviously
Love this... After dissolving into what has always been.. I've been wondering how to live and move thru life as this and with this new relationship w presence. This is a beautiful guide of what is already known. It literally paints essence upon this world to the explorer of Self
So beautiful to hear one of the Vidyadhara’s early teachings. Many of the phases and terms he uses here still permeate the teachings and the lineage he founded in the West. It sums up everything.
Thank you, again. 🙏💜
Thank you ♥️
The music was so good. Took the words deep inside.
Love this. Love you. Thank you 😄
Oh man. I loved this one again. Thank you.
This is exactly what I need
This is my go to instructions. Thank you as always🙏🙏🙏
❤❤❤Most precious Teachers
OMG, this music is AMAZING! I noticed it in Vivekchudamani part1, and it has an amazing effect on the Meditation. Beloved Samanery, you can use it to as many artworks as you want, it does only good 💖🦩
Simply awesome! Beautifully read, allowing the listener time to digest this profound eternal wisdom!! Thank you!
Very happy to have found this channel. Thank you!
Thank you, Jayasara 🙏🏽🧡
Trungpa Rinpoche was very close to Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. Dilgo Khyentse supported him wholeheartedly during most difficult times. So it is fully possible it comes originally from HH Dilgo Khyentse I.
Namaste and greatfullness for all of your pointings as a divine instrument! I listen to your pointings lay down with earphones on ,totally melted as pure self .One here is a fan of you🕉⚘🕉
Lovely meditation ! amazing 💖

🦋💙🦋
Thankyou 🙏🙏
Sister, Stephen again. Thank you with all my heart again, without pretension, for representing and embodying Avatara in your synchronous and divine Transmission. Your presence in my own life, whatever that means, now surpasses expression in this medium. Thank you for breaking this heart open so many times, compassionately in light 🙏❤️💎🪷
How beautiful Stephen, and your lovely message. 💜🌻
@@SamaneriJayasaraI write on medium, Sister, @stephenskandhas, and my professional creative title is Lila’s Gardener, as a sort of homage to both the play of Shiva/Shakti, and the engaged Buddhism of Thay Thich Nhat Hanh. It would have been impossible without your unspeakably beautiful support these past years, without any or any need of embellishing. I truly mean there is no gratitude possible in concept or form, so I hope you receive the great love I offer in my heart for your presence 🙏.
My first piece, about the experience that changed my view, but left me very confused, is called “Sunset on Selfishness, Sunrise on Sunyata”, which I don’t seem to be able to link here. In any case.
You, and these teachings, have greatly laid the questions to rest, perhaps beyond the reach of any personal guru or swami (excluding Guru Rinpoche, of course). This is not to pretend a you is teaching a me, but the conditions of you, Sister, in this conscious experience, has been a miracle worthy of endless gratitude and celebration. Speaking for myself, so to speak 😉❤
@@SamaneriJayasara please see the lords heart in my efforts, which are not my own, sweet Teacher 🙏❤️💎🪷
Finally, permission to shout EMAHO! at an annoyingly loud volume 🙏
😄😄😄
This Reading of “Dzogchen in Everyday Live” attributed to H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, and earlier to Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, seems so indistinguishably synergistic between the background ambient music score from the “Meditative Mind” series, as to create a Synesthesia between MESSAGE and MUSIC into One mesmerizing Singularity, very artfully crafted 🙏☸️!!
Want the meaning of the letters/ symbols in the centrer of luminous circle ⭕️
Amazing! Appreciate this greatly! To all of those putting in their best efforts....stop!🤣

How can i learn more about that symbol?
Thank you Samaneri Jayasara for this beautiful posting, which I was compelled to listen to several times. The simplicity of this Dzogchen teaching left me confused and the more I listened to it a question came to mind. Do meditation teachings vary according to the different Buddhist Traditions and/or individual Masters? I understood that just sitting there with no goal is no meditación. So, which is it?
Hi Clarita, I only just saw this question you posted so apologies for the long delay in responding. Yes, there are many different meditation techniques that are taught. The Buddha himself taught hundreds of different methods depending on the acumen of the student/disciple. He could see what was needed. However, although the Dzogchen teachings are not really "techniques" they do point to a practice whereby one develops an open awareness - or recognition of this natural state - and abides in it. It is not so much a "technique" as a waking up and recognising what is already there. Dzogchen is said the be the highest pinnacle as it is suited for those who can do this easily - recognise the Natural State - and not be overwhelmed by discursive thinking or afflictive emotions. However, it does not deny the benefit of techniques for those who need them - they are a skillful means especially when one is starting out on the path. Hope that helps clarify.
The space is a flame which has to be burnt in realisation
🥳🥳🥳❤❤❤
Does anyone happen to know more about the "practice to discovering space"?
Is it a type of meditation?
Here
Now
Is
Space
Yes
If interested, and need some support to get there, search online for courses or retreats (in person or online) that mention Dzochen or Mahamudra. There are sometimes offerings open to newer meditators.
Enlightenment without Buddhism or the Three Jewels!
🌈🌹🙏🔥
intro music name?
What does the symbol in the middle mean?
It's the symbol for Dzogchen. The symbol of Dzogchen is the Tibetan letter "A". The white A represents our primordial potentiality. It's in a circle of five colors called thigle. The colors represent the five elements.
And the five Buddha families as in Vajrayana Buddhism?
op
Give up all 'doing'.
Being requires no effort.
If there is nothing to attain or to realise, does that mean this is as good as it gets?
Thank you❤
Thank you 💝
