Universal
Dharma with Jesus,
Padmasambhava
and Krishna
The last couple of days
have been interesting to say the least.
I've been meditating some
and found out that my memory is perfect. I can remember the smallest
details of life events and places anywhere from my past, including
past lives. For example, yesterday, as I was seeing my past life as a
monk on Mt Koya in Japan, I could vividly remember the atmosphere and
the scent of the four seasons. I can remember everything from my body
and outlook, to the light of lanterns in the evening, to the
footpaths, to the splendour of life itself, how it was back then, and
how it is now... I looked at my hands and feet and the reflection of
my face. They look different and yet I know it's me, the same man,
the same person. A different lifetime, different place, but the same
purpose. Also, my ability to visualise has become perfect. It is
effortless and entirely without flaws or distractions. What a
delight... What a stunning perfume arising from the wild
strawberries!
From a bit different
perspective, recent days have made me come a full circle, in a sense.
I remember countless times as a little boy, sitting on the edge of my
bed alone, praying for my family, the villagers and for all living
beings. I remember when doing this by myself the room became filled
with the radiance of pure light and the air became thick with
blessings. Countless times Jesus and other masters* came to soothe
and support me. I remember being a small boy, in my small body in the
middle of people and circumstances where there was immense heartbreak
and pain. My eyes become filled with tears knowing how my masters
from past lives kept me afloat, above the surface that I wouldn't
become heavy and sink into the depths of pain.

A number of Pemako Sangha
members have told me about their meaningful experiences with Jesus
recently. Few received healings from him, one devoted buddhist friend
made a connection so strong with Jesus that it made him a bit
startled, and he wasn't sure how to deal with it. To me personally,
after hundreds of sessions of guru yoga transmission from him
directly, Jesus Christ, is as much a master of dharma as
Padmasambhava, Vimalamitra or any other of the mahasiddhas.
Historically, Jesus lived in the time when the continent of India,
from north to south, to east and west was abound with tantric temples
- shakti peethas –, practitioners and masters. And then, after
years in India, he brought the gifts of yoga to his home land. The
rest is history, unfortunately.
Anyhow, my point was to
say that I have made a full circle from my early childhood to this
day, understanding the role and importance of Jesus in my personal
life as well as in the life of my students, and our dharma work
together. As you know I have contemplated Jesus-centered method for
several years but it dawned on me now that the solution is not to
shift from one master to another. What will be done though is to give
JC his own place in the limelight, so to speak, together with
Padmasambhava, as well as Krishna, to form a trio who've not only had
great impact on me and our sangha but who are also known by the world
and who are therefore masters who many can relate and feel close to.
Also, as a dharma universalist, I love the fact that having these
three masters together – Jesus, Guru Rinpoche and Krishna – who
most people regard as ”a christian, buddhist and a hindu”,
completely shatters religious dogmatism. And that is what the world
needs now.
The history of human
spirituality is that no matter how hard they tried to keep the
teachings ”original and pure”, they always ended up creating
narrow minded dogmatic religions. When our basic nature is that of
freedom and free expression, the samsaric mind of men always end up
making it a tight cage filled with rules and regulations. It is like
the classical saying that the way to hell is paved with good
intentions. This is what needs to change because, we, the humanity,
can't keep fucking up every given opportunity to bringing true peace
and harmony on Earth. We need to learn to distinquish between pragma
and dogma, between yoga and religion, between practice and belief,
and with the heartmind of clarity and true love, keep shedding
unnecessary limitations. The mind of men needs to change from
thinking in terms of ”us and them” to ”all of us together”.
This is true bodhicitta. This is yoga and only yoga can be a true
religion that gives freedom, rather than takes it away! So, I think
that our little group, should become an example of this and actively
practice guru yoga with Jesus, Padmasambhava and Krishna, all three.
Remember, you are the
real deal. You are not less or more than all the buddhas and
mahasiddhas of the past, present and future. Potentially, you have
the mind, heart and vitality of all the enlightened ones! So, please,
for the sake of all beings, crack your coconut, split it in half and
let the perfume of natural love spread to your loved ones.

Not disturbing at all, the opposite, always pleasure to chat with
friends of the path. Aha, yes. You're discussing about different
frequencies and systems of the subtle body. So I'll give it a go
