A Little Inner Smile
Once you have the view, although the delusory perceptions of samsara may arise in your mind, you will be like the sky; when a rainbow appears in front of it, it’s not particularly flattered, and when the clouds appear, it’s not particularly disappointed either. There is a deep sense of contentment. You chuckle from inside as you see the facade of samsara and nirvana; the view will keep you constantly amused, with a little inner smile bubbling away all the time.
Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
“We can free ourselves from any kind of suffering if we understand the true nature of mind.”

A Visit from Tulku Migmed Dorje Rinpoche
We were honoured to host Tulku Migmed Dorje Rinpoche, together with his wife, at Dharma City during the summer shedra. As the eldest son of Chhimed Rigdzin Rinpoche (Khordong Terchen Tulku Chhimed Rigdzin Rinpoche), the lineage holder of the Khordong and the Northern Treasures (Jangter, byang gter) traditions in the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism, Rinpoche’s visit strengthened even more the connection between Patrul Rinpoche’s lineage and the Jangter lineage.
