Practice Meditation Three

More From Dalai Lama

When we say, "i take refuge in the buddha," we should also understand that "the buddha takes refuge in me," because without the second part the first part is not complete. the buddha needs us for awakening, understanding, and love to be real things and not just concepts. they must be real things that have real effects on life. whenever i say, "i take refuge in the buddha," i hear "the buddha takes refuge in me."
Real Understanding And Love
The way anything is developed is through practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice and more practice.
Practice Way
If grief or anger arises, let there be grief or anger. this is the buddha in all forms,sun buddha, moon buddha, happy buddha, sad buddha. it is the universe offering all things to awaken and open our heart.
Grief Heart Moon
When i said that i am the buddha, the christ, the lord maitreya, and more, it was not a question of superiority or inferiority. i added that phrase 'and more' very carefully, because i knew that people had a very limited understanding of the buddha and the christ, and hence if i said: 'i am the christ, the buddha', they would limit that reality to their own conceptions of the buddha or the christ, and life has no limit.
Reality People Understanding
It was hard to become an astronaut. not anywhere near as much physical training as people imagine, but a lot of mental training, a lot of learning. you have to learn everything there is to know about the space shuttle and everything you are going to be doing, and everything you need to know if something goes wrong, and then once you have learned it all, you have to practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice until everything is second nature, so it's a very, very difficult training, and it takes years.
Years Practice Space
We should be able to bring the practice of meditation hall into our daily lives. we need to discuss among ourselves how to do it. do you practice breathing between phone calls? do you practice smiling while cutting carrots? do you practice relaxation after hard hours of work? these are practical questions. if you know how to apply meditation to dinner time, leisure time, sleeping time, it will penetrate your daily life, and it will also have a tremendous effect on social concerns.
