In a lively and powerful talk at the World Launch of the Discipline of Peace, Domo Geshe Rinpoche discusses personal and universal peace dynamics.

Rinpoche puts forth a description of peace as a balance of inner energies and encourages us to cultivate self honesty regarding our own expectations of peace.

Proper motivation serves as a powerful fuel for spiritual progress. Domo Geshe Rinpoche covers the benefits of setting your virtuous intentions correctly, developing powerful motivations, and maintaining a virtuous mind throughout the day. Rinpoche also discusses the delicate techniques of building states of mind and how to "bookmark" them to return to at another time.

In a discussion intended to open our hearts, Domo Geshe Rinpoche leads an exploration into the dynamics of thankfulness and gratitude. Rinpoche talks about the differences between the two states of mind and helps us to identify and incorporate gratitude into our daily lives.

In the final installment in a series of three teachings, Domo Geshe Rinpoche leads a discussion on our personal concepts of time and space and how these either facilitate or hinder spiritual practice. Rinpoche presents Buddhist cosmology, founded thousands of years ago in India and later transmitted and preserved in Tibet. How did the great yogis view the world around them? Does it really operate by the laws we think it does? As always, Rinpoche will help guide participants to a more awakened and expansive perspective.

In the second of a series of three teachings, Domo Geshe Rinpoche delves into traditional Indian and Tibetan Buddhist views of space. What is space? What is the difference between a Buddha's perception of space and our own? How does energy in space solidify into matter? These and other question are explored.

Finally, Rinpoche guides the discussion toward the concept of inner space and the development that occurs there. Rinpoche and the audience explore how self-importance limits the vast inner spaciousness and how we can regain inner balance.
