【Teaching by Gyalwa Dokhampa】 Even though we think we are Buddhist we can not be a genuine Buddhist without following Buddhas teaching, because we are disciple of Buddha, and to follow Buddhism first we should learn and analyze Buddhas teaching to understand. Because without learn we cant understand how to practice correctly. And secondly we must put understand of teaching into practice, just only understand or analyze and carry teachings on lip is also not enough, we are not just like University students or researcher, we are practitioner, so teachings should use as medicine to cure our illness of ego and negative emotions. Because our goal is to get enlightenment and for that we must train our owns mind. There are various of teachings but one of the Essence of Buddhas teaching is compassion or Bodhichita mind, without this practice oneself can not get enlighten and will not able to benefit number of beings, so only some sweet bubble words also not enough to benefit others. We need to take an action to benefit others and practice well and dedicate merits to others. And when we engage in Dharma practice or Dharma activity to hold a right motivation is very necessary in forever, right motivation means Dharma should not mix up with worldly concern and negative mind. Because point of practice dharma is only for release from Samsara and get Nirvana, so if dharma itself mess up with Samsaric mind than this dharma can not be a result of enlightenment ,and rather than that this will progress more bad karma. Its like mix poison with foods. Simple teaching. by Gyalwa Dokhampa,9th Khamtrul Rinpoche September 3th, 2014
