Enjoy a full length talk from Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo from the 2011-2012 Christmas Symposium.
Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo became a Buddhist while still in her teens. At the age of 20, she traveled to India and become one of the first Westerners to be ordained as a Tibetan Buddhist nun. The international best-seller Cave in the Snow by Vicki Mackenzie chronicles Tenzin's 12 years of seclusion in the Himalayas. In 2008, the head of the Drukpa Kagyu lineage gave her the rare title of Jetsunma (venerable master). Deeply concerned with the plight of Buddhist nuns, Jetsunma Tenzin established Dongyu Gatsal Ling Nunnery in India. She has written two books: Reflections on a Mountain Lake and Into the Heart of Life.

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti

Please people, listen to this lady, again and again, "you" will never be losing your time, never. You have it in you too, start clearing up the debris, the layers of delusion. Have faith, "he", "her", "the source" is within "you", too.
speechless... Jetsunma is a morden Buddha in a female form. I feel very very inspired..
Best teacher so far in my search of true teachers in last 10 years- this is 2024
Sadhu sadhu sadhu.
May all beings know real happiness.
Thank you Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, may all beings be free from confusions and sufferings.
This is Amazing! I love that Tenzin Palmo calls it "controlling your mind" because after struggling with trying to meditate for years, i cringed at hearing the word, "meditation." Yikes! Yet, here, Tenzin Palmo explains it step-by-step, making it doable and easy. I finally can see what i was doing wrong. She has also motivated me to gain this mastery over my mind. I really appreciate this video. Thank you.
She also helped me a lot, a lot. But it was when I read somewhere that, no matter how disturbing are the first days, weeks, or even months of meditation, still you have to do them, because "you're building up" the muscle of meditation....that was a total game changer for me. Believe or not I started doing in the morning......in the toilet.....and it worked so well, `still do it today, after two years. Of course, this the only first step, "meditation is not what we do it is what we are". Rupert Spira. Search here for him, TODAY, you will not regret it. Peace and love, "you" will arrive at yourself, good journey.
Something i find that helps with just paying attention to this video, and others, is to put the video on full screen, so you don't indulge in the impulse to scroll through the comments and other recommendations.

One of the best meditation talks I´ve seen. Thanks so much for posting it!
Francisco Sanchez Molina : Talking about meditation is just talking. And this is all what Tibetans do, just talking.
Truly
Thank you 🦋🦋🦋
An amazing teaching on meditation. Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo is a living blessing. I love all her books, every single teaching available and everything she stands for 🙏❤️🌈 Om Ah Hung
What a great sense of Humor!
I had the wonderful good fortune of meeting Tenzin Palmo this past November at her monastery in India. She had a great presence about her, it was palpable. Thanks for this upload.
This is THE BEST discourse, explanation, and teaching...I have EVER heard on the basic process of meditation.
It greatly increased my motivation and reminded me of the urgency not to waste the precious opportunity of this lifetime. It needs to be watched again and again, it is so rich with direction and explanation.
EVERY step Jetsumna Tenzin Palmo described is absolutely accurate, I am completely overwhelmed with a renewed sense of direction and purpose.
Thank you, Sivanada Ashram Yoga Retreat Bahamas for this excellent video....Tashey Delek, and Namaste
Yes, I agree. I share this video often with people who want to know more and when I can't offer the explanation needed. She's amazing.
It is awakening. Best teaching on meditation I have come across so far. It encourages me go on with my practice. Thanks
It really is the most clear and precise explanation of meditation I have ever heard.
I strongly advise anyone NOT to watch her video!. I am an English Buddhist monk who hosts a Facebook page devoted exclusively to promoting the Lord Buddha's Dhamma. Last week I posted one of her video as I thought it would be inspirational and motivsting for those interested. However,yesterday I received notification, from FaceBook that the entire video had been taken down for 'Copyright' reasons. My conclusion is that Tenzin Palmo does not want to share her experiences unless she receives financial compensation for so doing. Such an attitude flies in the face of the Lord Buddha's Dhamma. What then has this woman learned in all her years spent as a Buddhist nun? Apparently very little if anything at all!
Powerful, insightful, inspiring, intelligent, witty.
Great teacher! Thank you!!!
Wow!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, and thank you Sivananda Bahamas!
Useful
I'm so blessed to find this video, and learn the teaching in a very easy to understand way.Thankyou Tenzin Palmo.
Clear and deep explanation, I also like her sense of humor. I discovered her remarkable journey in India and her own practice of meditation in Journeys in lands of Awakening and Sainthood.
Inspiring famale monk preacher on meditation !
Consise and crystal clear
I first listened to this two years back. Then I had only just started practicing meditation. Then the next year and this is da 3rd time. Each time it seems more clear and each time I find a simple word with a very broad meaning...
She is sooo good! Thank you, words for life.
She is so wise and knowledgeable.....
Very helpful, thank you for sharing 🙏
🙏🙏🙏
Best explanation of meditation and its functioning methodology I ever heard, and that I can recommend to my friends with other religions who also got body-empty experiences by prayer etc ... so as to help out without conflict. Thx 🙏
Thanks for posting
Priceless!
my gorgeous teacher!
She summed up the practice quite nicely.
Thank you very very much
Wonderful Teacher 🌸🌺🌼🐉
I love your sense of humour 🙏❤️
Namasté! OM Mano Padme Hung!
a very powerful teaching on meditation that is to the point and very relatable.
The clear step by step explanation is really helpful because it helps newbies overcome the uncertainty around the methodology.
Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for posting. This is very very helpful for me.
This is amazing. I learned so much. Thank you and God Bless. 🙏🙏
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌼
This video has helped me so much over the years. If u practice asana at a yoga studio it is essentially to practice meditation to have an equally balanced practice. It can be very challenging. I am grateful to Jetsunma & Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat Bahamas - Namaste WOLF ☮☮☮
_/\_ thank you for sharing this talk...
I wish I could be in this place and listen to the Teachings 🐲🙏
Very educative. I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.

"Hatha Yoga is preparation for meditation! " Yes! Jai Jetzunma!
awesome!!!!
The real virtue is to be sociable and to help.people as well as to have a role in society, not to isolate yourself from the world and meditate all your lifetime.
Found you !!💜
🙏🙏
Thankyou rfitton99 for the input
Kind Regards.
Examine the mind and how it creates happiness and suffering. Learn to transform destructive thoughts and attitudes to create a positive and joyous mind!

Hi Jetsuna - In your book `Cave in the Snow`you said as a child you were sick and had obe experiences - Did you ever read Lobsang Rampa when you were a child. I have memories, I think it is called `dream yoga` - Do you remember. Guru Deva Rampa guides me - you said you have heard of people like me, but never met one
Well said !
If we waste this opportunity now. what can we expect? If we do not waste this opportunity now, what can we expect? In the process of being, when this physical body gives up the life force ("Me"), is it that we move into another dimension, so too speak, which is the reality of the extention of living?
I love your videos. Your holiness don't you want to know and see where the first Tibetan Sangaram was opened solely for foreigners. This is north of Patna on the northern banks of the Ganges. Xuan Zangs lovely book led me to the Sangaram. According to him three Sramanas from across the SNOWY MOUNTAINS (From the area around 'Taro Co' lake in northern Tibet) crossed over to India on a pilgrimage to holy Buddhist sites. Indians fail to understand who they are and no one gives them food and shelter and sometimes beat them up. They were lying by the side of the road dying when the King rode up. He inquired about them and when they told him their story, the King realised a Sangaram was needed for foreigners only where Indians won't be allowed. So this can be regarded as the first Tibetan Sangaram in India. Those days Indians had pierced ears because they wore ear rings. Foreigners had unpierced ears so this Sangaram was for unpierced ears. Those days Indians didn't know about Tibet so this Sangaram was for unpierced years, meaning foreigners. Today that Sangaram is a village and that King is the local village deity. This story proves that Buddhism went to Tibet prior to Xuan Zangs epic journey to India. So Tibetans will have to study how and when Buddhism went to Tibet. Because Xuan Zang seems to infer that Buddhism went to Tibet much earlier than what the great masters claim today.
Tenzin Palmo has a discourse on karma and death you would look for that.
Om Mani Padme Hum ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨེ་ཧཱུྃ
Người phương tây không tu thì thôi khi họ tu họ tu rất tốt , họ có lòng cầu đạo rất cao và chân thật tu hành.
Đặc biệt là người phụ nữ nầy rất tốt , cô ấy sẽ có mặt trong những vị bồ tát chứng quả trong đời mặt pháp .
Tu mà tứ đại giai không mới là tu .
Beautiful experience, thanks.
What do you guys think she was thinking from 49:22 to 49:46
meditative state
+boksaboki I have had moments like this with my teacher, usually alone, several days in to sesshin. The veil is thin, and a simple truth is allowed to sit in silence. Great compassion, often quite devastating. I usually have the sense that I am sitting in front of myself, inviting me to just wake up. The first question, and her answer are spot on also.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌼
what is the best format to cope with the death of a dearly beloved one ?
Feel sad... know what sadness feels like... offer your loved one metta ( or well wishes). Eg may the be peaceful, may they be happy, and then offer it to yourself for the suffering you are going through.
This is absolutely hilarious!
She’s very solemn. She must have Protestant Christian roots.
I wonder where this talk was given? It's a Christmas symposium but there is a picture of a Hindu deity behind Jetsunma.
Por favor podrian Sub titular a Español gracias
Please could Subtitles in Spanish thanks
Meditative, this is enlightening, however why are there not any discourses on the reality of Dying, ofleaving this physical body! What is it like to not longer utilise the physical; What is the region or dimension alikened too of where we eventualy reside? No one has as of the present, given any formative understanding of the Dying and of how to prepare for that aspect of lifes journey?
Oh yes .... there are thorough and complete explanations of the natural state of the Bardo of Transitioning out of body in the Tibetan 'Phowa' teachings. Dying properly, calmly and consciously, is a tremendous step forward in reaching our goal of Enlightened Freedom. Please see Sogyal Rinpoche's 'The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying'.
True, but they say also Carlos Castaneda was a fraud but his writing is interesting. ;)
I like her and her talk but one has to wonder why, if meditation makes your mind very very sharp, why no monk has filed a patent for anything. Sharp for what? The part about a calm mind through meditation I buy; the part about a happy self too. The part about a sharp mind... hmm You might be sharp or not independently of meditation.
Javier Bonilla monks dont care for patents, lol. Dont measure other people with your arbitrary measurement systems. Also, i doubt you did any research about monks patenting anything.
Give you an analogy. When I was very young, I told myself that one day when I've grown up and got a job, I'll buy a house full of lego toys because I loved them. I'm close to 40 now and no I haven't bought myself a house full of Legos. It was cute to think that when I was 10 years old but the things that matter to you when you are 10 years old doesn't matter to you at 40. So, registering a patent or making a ton of money seems like a very big deal when you are in the lower states of mind. All that changes when you reach higher states of mind. The things you get to know will be so profound and you get to realise that the lack you feel as a human is due to the separation created by the mind. Hope that made sense. :-)
Sharp as in can think of an object in great detail and quickly without confusion.
Also as others said, those worldly things are of little importance.This life is a short temporary situation, wasting time creating some wordly object, especially for wealth, would seem like nonsense to anyone but a worldly person.
Sharp meaning alert, not intellectually clever. Ideally discursive thought naturally stops during meditation. Having said that, monks were some of the leaders in industrializing Japan along with warriors because they were educated

35:23 hahahaha.
Loool I laughed too
why is everyone laughing so much... she says nothing funny... they're just disturbing lol
Lady there are only seven billion beings to torture why do you only torture me?
Roger DArcy you torture yourself.
Not very intelligent woman. Just repeating old stuff. She seems she had not experienced very deeply. Nothing practical.
If you'd like to hear more about her experience, you might like her book Cave in the Snow. She has meditated for several years in isolation in a cave in the Himalayas. Remarkable really.
I agree. Cave in the snow gives a fuller picture of her commitment to the bodhisattva path. 5 months with no food when her supplier could not get to her cave!
It sounds like you have known better or you are more intelligent than her. Then share your wisdom to enlighten us
ruzickaw : Buddhism showed in internet is most of times just a leaflet. Interesting stuff and Teachers are not in internet. They were years ago but not anymore.
ruzickaw : She’s giving a very general mixed up ideas about different ways of meditation. In other words is just information.
