Part I, Ven. Sarah Thresher guides us through the lam-rim outline on
guru devotion as taught by Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Ribur Rinpoche and
Pabongkha Rinpoche.
The root of all happiness and all realizations on the path is correct reliance on the guru who reveals the path to liberation and enlightenment. To achieve realizations, we need the blessing of the guru; to receive the blessings of the guru, we need to see the guru as inseparable from all the buddhas.
This recording is part 1 of a 3-disc series of 15 individual meditations that can be used as formal guided meditations or listened to more casually while driving or working around the house.
Part 1 includes:
- General benefits and disadvantages (25:33)
- The benefits of corrective devotion (30:50)
- The disadvantages of incorrect devotion (29:51)
- How to view the guru (36:26)
