Karmapa Teaches Mindfulness and Meditation to Young People (Podcast Episode #018)
"We have to remember that we are always changing. Every second we're changing. We're changing from moment to moment. As the watch goes 'tick tock, tick tock' we are also changing with every second. So what this means is that while we might have a problem in the first moment, in the next moment we have an opportunity to be a new person who doesn't have that fault. We have the choice that we can actually be a new person in every moment." - Gyalwang Karmapa<br /> <br /> Today's episode is from a teaching that the Gyalwang Karmapa gave to school students back in 2013 where they asked him questions about meditation, caring for the environment, becoming a happier person, and much more. The Karmapa sat on the floor with the children and his translator, David, and carefully addressed all of the different topics that they raised.

How to Understand the Heart Sutra (Podcast Episode #017)
The Heart Sutra (Sanskrit Prajñāpāramitāhṛdaya or Chinese 心經 Xīnjīng) is one of the most popular and important texts for understanding the Buddha's view of reality, especially throughout East Asia, Tibet, and now the Western world.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In 2016, the Gyalwang Karmapa traveled to New Delhi and gave an extensive teaching on the Heart Sutra at the request of disciples from around the world. This was the first time that the Karmapa had taught directly on a sutra as opposed to a commentary.<br /> These profound and very detailed teachings auspiciously began on India's Independence Day and lasted for several days, covering topics such as history, line-by-line explanations, meditations, and even sessions where the Prajñāpāramitā Sutra was written out on paper in a calligraphy style.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> A copy of the Heart Sutra written out by the Gyalwang Karmapa in calligraphy style.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Today's podcast episode is the complete teachings on the Heart Sutra given by the Karmapa in New Delhi. At almost seven hours long, it is an inspiring and detailed look at how to truly understand this wonderful and essential text outlining the view of the Buddha for those on the Bodhisattva path.<br /> You can download the episode in iTunes or directly using the link below.

Buddhism and Environmental Protection (Podcast Episode #016)
His Holiness the 17th Karmapa has long spoken of the importance of environmental protection and regularly encourages Buddhist students and others to engage in activities that benefit the natural world.<br /> <br /> In today's podcast we go back to a short and powerful teaching by the Gyalwang Karmapa about the current climate emergency and how he has become involved through promoting a vegetarian diet, the protection of forests, and by encouraging all monasteries and nunneries to partake in various conservation measures.<br /> <br /> The Karmapa teaches us how environmental protection accords with the Buddhist principles of compassion, interdependence, and loving-kindness, and how we can use these meditations to strengthen our resolve and reduce human greed and desire.<br /> <br /> The episode is in Tibetan with an English translation.
