Our US Festival began w/Gen Rigpa welcoming everyone. He based his intro on 3 questions Ven Geshe-la asked in 2013: Why do I need to practice Buddha’s teachings? Why do I need to be concerned for my future lives? Why do I need perm liberation from suffering?

At the end of our practice great compassion is like the fully ripened crop that allows us to reap the good harvest of benefiting others.

Great compassion is important even after attaining full enlightenment.

Since bodhichitta is generated in dependence upon great compassion, the power of our bodhichitta depends upon the power of our compassion. Bodhisattvas who have very strong compassion attain enlightenment quickly.

When we see that someone we like is experiencing pain we feel compassion and sympathy for them, but this feeling is not the great compassion we need to cultivate in order to enter Mahayana paths. Great compassion observes all living beings.

Buddha has great compassion that is completely impartial, embracing all living beings without discrimination. He benefits all living beings without exception.

It is very important to be able to distinguish unpeaceful states of mind from peaceful states. States of mind that disturb our inner peace, such as anger, jealousy and desirous attachment, are called ‘delusions’. These are the principal causes of all our suffering.

We may think that our suffering is caused by other people, by poor material conditions, or by society, but in reality it all comes from our own deluded states of mind.

The essence of Dharma practice is to reduce and eventually to completely eradicate our delusions, and to replace them with peaceful, virtuous states of mind. This is the main purpose of training in meditation.

Normally we seek happiness outside ourself. We try to obtain better material conditions, a better job, higher social status, and so on; but no matter how successful we are in improving our external situation, we still experience many problems and much dissatisfaction.

In his Dharma teachings, Buddha advises us not to seek happiness outside ourself but to establish it within our mind. How can we do this? By purifying and controlling our mind through the sincere practice of Buddhadharma.

The principal causes of both happiness and problems are in the mind, not in the external world. If we were able to maintain a calm and peaceful mind all day long, we would never experience any problems or mental suffering.

Conscientiousness is necessarily virtuous and a cause of happiness. The first type of conscientiousness causes samsaric happiness and the second causes the happiness of liberation and enlightenment.

The definition of conscientiousness is a mental factor that, in dependence upon effort, cherishes what is virtuous and guards the mind from delusion and non-virtue.
