| Lama Jigme's Tips on Meditation and the Spiritual Path |
There is only so much time and energy. These limitations
force us to choose between scholastic accomplishment
and spiritual attainment.
Many Americans who study Zen put more effort into trying
to become Japanese, then they do trying to attain
enlightenment.
The same absurdity occurs when Americans studying:
• Ch’an,
• Tantra or
• Theravada…
indulge in the silly distraction of getting lost in the cultures
of:
• China,
• Tibet,
• India and
• Thailand.
master:
• linguistics,
• culture,
• trivia or
• politics.
My job is simple.
Your job is simple.
Buddha’s job was simple.
May I give you a Fact and a Secret?
FACT: Buddha was born for two purposes;
#1 to accomplish full enlightenment in one
lifetime and...
#2 to take away the world’s sufferings.
That is also why you were born, and that is also why I was
born, and quite honestly, that is what the meaning of life is
all about!
So let’s free ourselves from the time-wasting and energy-
squandering distractions that threaten to drain us like
Dracula in a Bela Lugosi film.
And instead, let’s set our sights upon, the two most worthy
goals of accomplishing enlightenment for ourselves and
others.
If you were to schedule and pay for an audience with the
14th Dalai Lama of Tibet; and you asked him what the
meaning of life was, what would his answer be?

can be found in…
At that point:
• your eyes could glaze over,
• your jaw could hang slack and
• a line of drool could actually descend from the
corner of your mouth.
And of course, seeing this, the Dalai Lama could, good
naturedly, point and laugh.
The “…two collections for the two purposes…”;
SIMPLE! The two purposes are:
#1 to accomplish full enlightenment in this life and
#2 to then, turn around, and help everyone else do
likewise; without ever abandoning our
• children,
• partners,
• jobs or
• homes.
The two collections are:
• the collection of transcendental Insight and
• the collection of Good-karma.
The two purposes are our destinations and the two
collections fuel us on Buddha’s path.
One of the most effective ways to further your progress on
Buddha’s path to enlightenment to is to practice the
“Treasure of the Dalai Lamas” for 3 minuets every
morning and 44 seconds every evening. That way you’ll
understand the essence of Buddha’s teachings, so you
can have a hook to hang your hat on, so it could be much
easier to feel safe on enlightenment’s path, so you could
free up your time and energy for that which is truly
important… greater: peace, love, bliss and
transformation, so reserve your copy now
