Mingyur Rinpoche on His New Meditation Manual

What inspired Mingyur Rinpoche to write his new meditation manual? We’re excited to announce that today we are launching the BUDDHIST PSYCHOLOGY IMMERSION! Over the next nine months, we will explore Mingyur Rinpoche’s brand-new text “Stainless Prajna: Meditation Manual on the Treasury of Abhidharma”. The immersion will be the core of Tergar’s year-long transmission.

THE IMMERSION INCLUDES:
✓ Exclusive video teachings from Mingyur Rinpoche covering all 25 meditations of Stainless Prajna
✓ Guided meditations
✓ Live sessions and one-on-one interviews with Vajrayana Online guides
✓ Practices for daily life
✓ Access to a draft translation of Rinpoche's new meditation manual

ABOUT THE TEXT:
Stainless Prajna is not yet published. The English translation is expected to be completed next year. A draft translation is provided to all Vajrayana Online members as part of the course materials. Keep in mind that this is a traditional Buddhist meditation manual, not a typical book. Reading alone is not enough to truly understand it — the best approach is to learn directly from Mingyur Rinpoche, Tergar lamas, and Tergar guides throughout the Buddhist Psychology Immersion. During the course, you will receive teachings and practical guidance to explore each chapter and meditation in the text.

My hope is that, in contrast to the 20th century, which was very limited in terms of communication, many more people today will come into contact with the teachings of Buddhism and can be liberated as part of an avalanche effect and develop an energy of goodness that will save us and the planet.
In a world that is so mentally focused on the ego, on thinking, on the rational and from which so many sufferings, depressions and limitations develop, especially in Western societies, the teachings of the Buddha are timelessly important and the only instrument that can liberate us sustainably.
I am just a layman at the very beginning, but I already feel a change of being thanks to the books and videos of Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche and also other teachers like Ajahn Brahm or from Japanese Zen. I am very grateful that these teachers take the effort to make the world a better place. With wonderful information, instructions and not to forget this wonderful humor. I hope that many people out there will accept the teachings of the Buddha - for themselves and also for the world. Many greetings from Germany to distant Tibet and the wide world. Namaste.

The thumbnail of Rinpoche holding the manual. Would be much more existential if the manual had a picture of him on the front holding the manual. ❤ 😊 🎉 So many beans and chips....so little time. 😊

Meditation is best medicine 💊 in this world

Why don't you ask for volunteers to review the english text before publishing? I'm sure you could find a good soul out there to help with that. 😊❤❤

I started with one minute.

Then something cool happened, I began practicing a guided meditation program with many steps. Many different tracks, 3 years of content. Very good progression.

On top of that, I thought to myself "Hey, if I will do 30 minute listening meditation, I can do 1 minute hatha yoga, 6 positions, one for each area. Because there is almost no difference between 30 and 31 minutes.

Then i learned some tummo, some lung-tzu, got some spontaneous ideas. Now everyday, I meditate 1hr at minimum. Usually I meditate 3 hours.

And so, what are the effects? Am I more calm? Do I feel good?

Well, last night, in the middle of a dream. I came out of my chest. I was a ball of light. I identified as a ball, not girl or boy.

I did not remember my life. I assumed that died and went to heaven, I remtmber thinking "I guess, the wrong part of me survived death". I was a bit proud, a bit angry and felt I needed to get myself a body. My car has broken, I need to find a new car, then I can ride car some more.

I tried to jump into peoples head, by seeping down from the scalp.

A lot happened, I was eventually forced back to my apartment by a team of strangers. I tried going into a doll that I had in my bedroom. A woman grabbed into my chest, I could feel it tickle my heart, then cast me back unyo my body, before I woke up.

I was deeply fascinated and took out my phone recorder and recorded my dream.

May Triple Jem bless you ! How can I buy this book ?

[lankasamaraweera]

Please ven Sir please let us know how we can get this valuable book.
Thankyou 🙏🙏

[chunqiu]

More and more commercial offers, less and less free contents to view, did Mingyur fall to craving something ?

You progress only when you maintain your practice morning and evening. If you take courses, whether of 10, 20 or even 30 days, and you miss your daily meditation, you will not really benefit. A course ought to strengthen your practice, your understanding of Dhamma at the experiential and intellectual level. But only applied Dhamma will give real benefits. If you do not practice morning and evening every day, you will notice that real progress is missing. Morning and evening sittings are very important.
Also, throughout the day, from time to time examine how you deal with situations you encounter. Are you able to handle them better than before? The more you find you are progressing on the path, the more you will be encouraged to practice. If you find that there is no improvement, either you have stopped practicing or you are not practicing properly.
I repeatedly warn students that Vipassana is not intended for the enjoyment of pleasant sensations, but despite my advice some of them make that their aim. They think, “I must get a free-flow of very pleasant vibrations. If I’m not getting it, I’m not progressing.” They are completely wrong. The equanimity you have developed is the measure of your progress.
