The teachings of the great Tibetan yogi Milarepa are still practiced today, and show us what is needed to gain inner peace and mental stability.

Milarepa’s Doha on Happiness describes how we can become free of habitual reactivity, unhelpful emotional patterns, and limited ways of seeing ourselves and others.

“Having the best conditions for Dharma practice I am happy;

Having stopped negative actions I am happy;

Treading the path of merit I am happy;

Divorced from hate and injury I am happy;

Having lost all pride and jealousy I am happy;

Understanding the harm of the eight worldly dharmas I am happy;

Using the mind to watch the mind I am happy;

Without hope or fear I am always happy.”

This talk is suitable for anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of the purpose and benefit of the Buddhist teachings and meditation.
