@skulloljorv: breathing.essence said In 2007, at Lapchi in Nepal, H.E. Garchen Rinpoche was asked to give an instruction of Jetsun Milarepa. What followed was a teaching of uncompromising precision. Generosity is brought back to the release of self-grasping. Moral conduct to abandoning deception. Patience to fearlessness before ultimate truth. Diligence to remaining inseparable from practice. Meditation to abiding within the natural state. Wisdom to realizing the nature of mind. The remaining instructions turn toward skillful means, spiritual power, primordial awareness and aspiration, each stripped of display and returned to its essential purpose. These words do not dismiss outward virtue. They ask what must transform within us for virtue to become genuine. Milarepa is remembered throughout the Kagyu tradition as a great Tibetan yogi and master of mountain retreat. Here, in a landscape deeply associated with his life and practice, Garchen Rinpoche transmits an instruction attributed to him, not as philosophy to admire, but as a measure against which to examine one’s own practice. What remains when generosity no longer serves the self? When patience is no longer avoidance? When practice is no longer performance? Perhaps perfection begins where self-grasping ends. H.E.
