"(00:00) How to deal with being self-critical in relation to dharma?"

"(02:38) Is it valid to do practice linked to the mamos at this time? How to integrate vajrayana rituals with our contemporary life?"

"(06:05) Explain the meaning of the three roots guru, yidam and dakini"

"(15:00) I am not sure if I want the family or to dedicate my life to dharma practice. I think I could lose time in family life. Any advice?"

"(23:37) If I had difficulty understanding this dzogchen view, how can I overcome these obstacles?"

"(27:49) Is it important to have our eyes open in the "white A" guru yoga?"

"(29:32) Can you say more on the image of the mirror and the crystal ball? Is there a difference between what they are used to illustrate?"

"(36:32) I see suffering beings yet I practice to see that there are no actual beings. This is confusing."

"(39:58) When I'm sitting, resting in stillness and presence, at some point, there's a loss of vividness and lucidity. I don't fall asleep, yet I'm not fully aware. It's rather flat and dull. Then, I return to the more spacious experience and I've become aware that I have become somewhat veiled or covered"
