In this episode Geshe Tashi reads and discusses His Holiness’s Daily Inspiration for the 27th March. In the light of the current worldwide Coronavirus outbreak, Geshe Tashi has chosen a quotation from His Holiness the Dalai Lama emphasising the “need for a clear awareness of the interdependent nature of nations, of humans and animals and the world.” Drawing on his own experience of trying to care for the Sera Mey monks and their families at this time, he skilfully encourages us to use the Buddhist teachings on interdependence to try and gain some perspective around the feelings of fear and confusion many of us are experiencing.
With best wishes as always,
Your Admin Team
Many, many thanks Geshe-la for taking the time to make these wonderful podcasts. So helpful, informative and relevant. Hope you and all those you are connected with stay very well and safe.
Best love and much respect.
Thank you once again Geshe La for your wisdom and encouragement. I felt sad to hear that you could not get through, despite many attempts, on the Indian government help line. I do hope that this situation improves so that you have the medical information you need to keep your community safe. You are all in our prayers.
Thank you and best of health at this time to you and all at Sera.
Dear Geshe la
Thanks so much for spending time in your busy life to record this wonderful teaching for us
Please keep safe and well
Perhaps the effects of this pandemic will eventually filter through to a better global understanding of the interdependence of things & result in a more skilful use of body, speech & mind in future. Certainly, lessons of the impermanence & vulnerability of human existence are becoming evident in these times. Thank you Geshe-la for these invaluable podcasts & also for the Covid-19 updates. All good wishes to you & the monks of Sera Mey Monastery.
Dear Geshe la
Many thanks again for kindly sharing your thoughts and practical advice at a time when you have so much to do. The situation in India and other such countries certainly puts ours in perspective even though our health care systems are struggling to cope. Sending warmest good wishes and hoping very much that by isolating, the monastery stays safe. Some of the old fashioned remedies such as turmeric, neem and fresh ginger may help. Thinking of you all.
Warmest good wishes and to all
Jane

Yes I agree with Sue.the concept is important and also massive
Put simply How the wealth of one country
Necessitates the poverty of others.
I will make dedications that each and every living being comes through this endemic and that those who have died have a perfect human rebirth and in particular all my close friends Geshela, teachers. HHDL people without medical support , those in a poor environment without facilities , the kindness of all mother sentient beings meant or not mean without whom I wouldn’t be alive.
And will do my best as I see others doing their best in whatever small way we can be of help.
Thank you so much Geshe-La, for taking the time to talk to us about this very important topic. My best wishes to you and all in the monastery. I hope we all continue to enjoy good health, and come out of this pandemic stronger and more compassionate towards all.
Thank you for your teaching on this subject, I will offer my prayers to all affected by this, as Geshe said we in the west are fortunate. Blessings of Tara be bestowed upon us all.
Thank you 🙏
Thanks a lot Geshe-la,
all the best for You and the monastery 🌟
