Garchen Rinpoche would be giving teachings on
"The Spiritual Songs of Milarepa"
7 May & 9 May (Monday & Wednesday)
7.30pm
@ City Bayview Hotel (near Dhoby Ghaut MRT)
There will be English and Chinese translation available.
Garchen Rinpoche is a great teacher, who's truly an embodiment of loving-kindness and compassion. When he gives teachings, he often teaches from the most basic to the most direct essence.
Milarepa is often renowned to be the greatest meditator in Tibet. His spiritual songs are known to point to the most direct essence of our minds and are very useful instructions for Dharma practitioners.
Rare opportunity that Garchen Rinpoche came to teach on Milarepa's dohas (spiritual songs). Whoever's interested, do come to attend this teaching. -

Hmm he was imprisoned for many years by the Chinese Liberation Army because at that time they would imprison all the Tibetan Rinpoches.
Then in the prison, he saw some ants crawling on the floor....and at that point, loving-kindness & compassion towards this ants arose within him.... and he made the vow not to lie down on the floor to sleep (to avoid hurting these little animals). So for all the years he was in prison, he always sat on the table or some other platform to sleep, and never lied down.
When he was eventually released from the prison, he was full of gratitude towards the Chinese Liberation Army, as he said that it was them who gave him the conditions to practice and gain merits & realizations. -
