Everything Comes From the Mind
In this module of Living in the Path, Lama Zopa Rinpoche explains how everything comes from our mind: everything that appears to us comes from our karma (the mental factor intention) as well as from our mind labeling it and our mind projecting the hallucination of true existence on it. The teachings also include a variety of methods to help stop anger and develop patience based on understanding karma and emptiness.
The Secret of the Mind
In this module of Living in the Path, Lama Zopa Rinpoche shows us that mind and karma – rather than external conditions – are the source of all our happiness and suffering. Rinpoche bases this teaching on two verses from the Dhammapada taught by the Buddha as well as the following verse from Shantideva's Engaging in the Bodhisattva's Way of Life:
The secret of the mind, the supreme principal of Dharma,
Even if desiring to achieve happiness and destroy suffering,
Will wander [in samsara], meaninglessly.
