On the up: Tsem RinpocheOn the down: Not doing enough for Rinpoche
Most of us at Kechara were sent this link on
Singa Rinpoche's new hit video which you must must must must must go visit. It is fantastic for all the difference "faces" that Dharma can appear in and just great that it's all about being yourself while pursuing a spiritual path - soooo very
Tsem Rinpoche!
It's a great video and totally inspiring but it did make me feel quite sad that we haven't been able to do the same for our Lama, Tsem Rinpoche yet. I got thinking about how I became involved with KH in the first place because someone had asked me to do some work with them for a documentary they were planning to do with Rinpoche. Two years on, still no documentary (and that person has mysteriously disappeared...) and I've been feeling rubbish that I hadn't (or didn't know how?) to make it work.
I mean, it's not just a big ego thing, like, "Oh my Lama's more famous than yours" but it's just sad to think of how many people could find something so precious and happy and peaceful from and with Tsem Rinpoche's teachings (like I have) and we just haven't got him and his teachings all the way out there yet.
Poo.
You think we can still make it work with KMP and the like?
Paris sure hopes so.
