Crossing Tibet: 02 The Lion's Thorne

Episode 2: The Lion's Throne Today's episode is about how the little boy was further tested and enthroned. Soon after the monks found the little boy on a 16,000-foot plateau in the cold Kham Mountains, the incarnation of Trungpa Tulpur, he and his mother were taken from their home in the highlands and led to the monastery. There, he was put through a series of tests, to be sure he was the incarnation of the deceased 10th Lama. Besides the historical background of the high lama's teachings, I will give you information from his lectures. Today, we will learn why appreciation is the foundation of meditation practice.
