The Bodhi Tree
Letters and news from Patrul Rinpoche - Poems from Patrul Rinpoche
Written by Patrul Rinpoche

Hi,
    Where I live is the centre of Europe - beautiful country where everything is magnificent.  You can imagine wonderful chocolate, bear and well-known statue of the Manneken Pis. Of course you know that it is called Belgium.
I am reading one book called The Bodhi Tree. It is nice, because it talks about Buddha's compassion which is like a tree. It is not any kind of tree, but it is medicinal and wish-fulfilling tree. Whoever comes across this tree, impartially receives a lot of benefit. It is medicinal tree which can cure all illnesses of dualistic conceptual turmoil.
The conceptual turmoil is totally self-oriented. It is always concerned about one's ego, pride, rivalry, jealousy, hatred and improper conceptual wondering. In such case our minds become partial and are related to the activities of wacky entertainments, which are endless and meaningless.

Hi, I am sending you one wish that is my heart warmth, which is concerning impartiality. It is forever lasting. 

Where we live is the most wonderful world in this space. It isn't a comparable state of happiness. Today I am offering you this wish that you may have long life happiness and success without hindrance.

Our seat is the momentary nature, which is the nature of our reality. The momentary nature is never falling to one side. Therefore may my offering wish link with the unchangeable reality. In this way truthful wishes are incontrovertible.

My dear, could you accept this wish, it comes from the bottom of my heart.
My dear, long life! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
May the coming year give you comfortable life and success.
May this New Year be the condition for the fulfilment of all your positive wishes! May they become true! many Tashi Delek.

from Patrul Rinpoche

 
Letter to my students, June 2009

ImageDear students!

I would like to take this opportunity to offer my regards to you, which is coming from the centre of my heart. I hope your superior activities of the dharma are going well, especially in improving your Sampa Sangpo of compassion.   And also, sure, your understanding of Authentic Dharma is increasing and also wisdom is becoming sharper. Through your development of compassion and wisdom you understand the reality of relative and the reality of ultimate, and also suchness and manyness.

Here, with me, everything is going well. A few months ago I was in Japan. We studied "The Words of My Perfect Teacher". The organization and course were so good. Weather was also very good. Afterwards I went to China and Tibet. In Tibet our projects, the Zangdok Palri Temple and the school, are going very well. I stayed there 3-4 days. Then I came back to Belgium. Now I have became very lazy, doing almost nothing, sleeping, drinking alcohol and eating, and sometimes I am going to hot spring, to many different shoe shops to find permanent shoes. But I could not find. Still I am searching. Can you find permanent shoes and fearless shoes for me ?

Letter to my dearest students, 27th of October 2009

All my dearest superior students,

Patrul Rinpoche Dharmacity Summer 09 Shedra 12I hope you are well and that you are doing very well especially dharma activities. I am still alive doing normal things with my electronic gadgets but they are quite impermanent. They have become quite old but still work very well. After the Shedra I went to different countries, visiting different people. Of course mainly students and mostly studied about impartial compassion. I was very happy because some students commented on impartial compassion.

It was really amazing because they understood quite deeply. They said that impartial compassion is the cause of all happiness of the temporary and ultimate and it is the pervasiveness of enlightened activity. It is the global mansion of peace, harmony and solidarity in which we can live joyfully and contentedly all together; just this. Nothing else.

Prayers for World Peace Drubchen of Guru Rinpoche
The Drupchen of Guru Rinpoche was a magnificent success and our precious teacher Patrul Rinpoche says that this excellent experience was due to the power of the student’s wishes.

Tibet Dzogchen Drupchen
Rinpoche explained that “In Dzogchen monastery, when we make Drupchen, the fifth day is a very important day. We call that day the bumdrup”.
