Rinpoche the Teaser
by admin on Oct.19, 2010, under Tsem Tulku Rinpoche
Tsem Tulku Rinpoche likes to tease his students, especially at the most vulnerable times – when you are carrying an offering bowl filled to the brim from the altar to the sink, or you are holding up a picture with both your hands up to hang onto the wall, or you are squeezing into the tight space under the bed to retrieve something, Rinpoche would suddenly spring into action (sometimes even from his “sleep”) and start tickling you, inserting his index finger into your ear, or pinching the tiny bit of skin at some of the most sensitive parts of your body, you wanted to scream and twitch your body to push off his invading finger, but Rinpoche would tell you “Stay still, mind over matter, mind over matter…” and that made you want to scream more, and just drop the bowl or just fling the picture frame right out of the window, but you can’t. Then you realized that it is not that Rinpoche wanted to tease you because he was bored, he is teaching you if you can’t even stand the pinch on 0.1 square inch of you skin, what about these burning monks (a few incidents caught on videos) who stayed in absolute calmness and composure? Then you believe that “Mind over Matter”, however much it seems ridiculous to you in the beginning, is actually achievable…Watch these amazing videos:

Thank you for sharing this. Rinpoche works very hard to train his students into practising Dharma and not just purely reading & understanding.
I rejoice that you/we have the good fortune to be trained by Rinpoche personally.
P/s: Next time I see you carrying an offering bowl filled to the brim from the altar to the sink, or you are holding up a picture with both your hands up to hang onto the wall, I will know what to do, hahahahaha!!!!
