500 образов для медитации на шагах пути к просветлению, занятие 73

[Speaker 1]
Okay, why I put this guy here?

[Speaker 2]
I was looking for a picture of a bodhisattva. You think he has to have, you know, light coming out of his head and a big bump here, and silk clothes? Bodhisattva look like that, okay?

[Speaker 1]
Just happy person.

[Speaker 2]
Okay, what's the definition of bodhisattva? Nick, no, human dictionary. Okay, SEMS RGYAS GZHAN YANG DAG BYANG CHUB DUS SEMS RGYAS PA NI GZHAN DU'I RGYUR YANG DAG TSOGS PA'I BYANG CHUB DUS Definition of bodhisattva.

Okay, what is it? I want to become Buddha to help other people. I want to become an angel made of diamond light who can go to billions of planets and help every single being.

So, how do you change the whole world?

[Speaker 1]
Bodhisattva's occupation? It's supposed to save the whole world.

[Speaker 2]
Then when I first heard that, I thought about all these guys ...

[Speaker 1]
there's a special church in America. I don't know why, they're always skinny 25 year old guys, very white skin, and they wear a black tie, and they come to your house and they bang on the door, you know, and they say, did you hear the truth about Jesus Christ?

[Speaker 2]
If you're smart, you look out the window and you don't open the door. And sometimes they do really cool stuff. I mean we had a nun who was very sick with cancer, and those guys saved her and took her to the hospital.

[Speaker 1]
But when I heard bodhisattva, oh I'm supposed to save everybody, you know, when I heard it the first time, I thought, ah dang, those guys with the black tie, they're correct, you know. I have to go to every single house in the universe and knock on the door.

[Speaker 2]
I can save you, you know. You know, I thought, oh my god, this bodhisattva thing, oh man. But that's not how it is, okay?

The bodhisattva way of life, right? It's very simple. You make yourself happy, other people will come and ask you, what the hell are you doing?

Okay, if you have a ...

[Speaker 1]
if you are a super happy person, successful person, financially everything, if you have beautiful relationships, if you have a lot of energy, you're super healthy, then automatically people will come to you, and you don't have to wear a black tie, and you don't have to go door to door, people will come to you.

[Speaker 2]
You know, what are you doing?

[Speaker 1]
You know, last year you didn't have a girlfriend, you're always broke, you're always borrowing money from me. Now you got this new car, you got this great job, you know, your girlfriend's super guapa. What are you doing?

Karma.

[Speaker 2]
You know, emptiness. Then that, you know, then your friend gonna say, can you teach me about what is what is vaquidad?

[Speaker 1]
That's a bodhisattva. Human advertisement, okay?

[Speaker 2]
That's this guy, okay?

[Speaker 1]
He's not like special person, you know, he's not flying in the sky, you know, he's just having a good life, and other people are attracted. How you do that? Can you help me?

You know, it's called automatic teacher. The idim is, okay, this is on your examination, bodhisattva, kama, kama, living example, okay? That's all, okay?

[Speaker 2]
Now, what's the opposite of that?

[Speaker 1]
Anyone want to try?

[Speaker 2]
One of my students, many years ago, okay, they're gone, don't worry about it. She was teaching meditation, and I decided to sneak in the back and watch, you know, and she's like ... and then she'd pick up this coffee cup and she's like this ...

meditation make you calm! Then my ...

[Speaker 1]
there were two ladies sitting in front of me, and one of them turned to the other one, and pretty loud she said, you know, I don't know what kind of meditation she's teaching, but I don't want to learn it.

[Speaker 2]
That's called wrong teacher training. You know all the meditation, but you're not meditating, and you're nervous, and you're an unhappy person.

[Speaker 1]
Then don't try to teach if you're an unhappy person, okay? First become a happy person, and that's the teaching.

[Speaker 2]
Okay, got it? Alright? That's human example, living example.

That's bodhisattva. Okay, people come to me, I don't know why did you get a teacher training? Why did you give me a teacher training?

I'm like ... Alright, next one.
