Graphic and composite by New Dimensions

Be inspired by these four Buddhist teachers: Tim Burkett, Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, and Sylvia Boorstein. Millions of spiritual seekers possess a dog-eared copy of the spiritual classic Zen Mind, Beginner Mind: Informal Talks on Zen Meditation. Zen teacher, Burkett describes being in the presence of and receiving direct teachings from this most revered teacher. Born in Nepal, Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche’s honest accounts of his personal difficulties have endeared him to thousands of Buddhist and non-Buddhist students across the world. Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche is a revered Tibetan teacher who loves to translate complex Eastern principles into terms and images that are accessible to the Western mind. Buddhist teacher, Sylvia Boorstein says “You don’t have to be a Buddhist to practice Buddhism. It’s not about being a something–a Buddhist, a Jew or a Christian–it’s about being more awake.”

Rinpoche explains, “We all have love. But when there is no inner fire, it doesn’t ripen. So if there’s some way to generate those inner fires with sound, with breathing, with movement—qualities of your own loving spirit that exist in you, it will rapidly ripen. As the sun’s heat ripens the flower, the inner heat ripens the inner flower of love.”  Read more »
