Buddhism is about seeing rather than doing.
The Buddha argues that seeing, perception precedes action.
Our action follows a way of looking at the world. What we are cultivating is not a type of doing by which we achieve something and become someone. It is freeing ourselves of ways of looking at the world that deprive us of those essential qualities that we need to function, to be happy.”
- Venerable Gendun

Lama Tsongkhapa was born in 1357 in the remote region of Amdo. Even as a child, people noticed his calm presence, sharp mind, and natural kindness

He frequently dreamt of Atisha which was a sign that he would correct misunderstandings of the Dharma in Tibet and restore its purity, combining sutra and ta**ra, as Atisha had done.

At the age of seven, Tsongkhapa received novice vows from Choje Dondrub Rinchen and the ordination name Losang Dragpa. He continued to study in Amdo with this lama until he was sixteen, at which time he went to U-tsang (Central Tibet) to study further.

Tsongkhapa shows that true understanding grows where kindness, study, and humility meet.

Born in Amdo, trained by teachers of all Tibetan traditions — Sakya, Kagyu, Nyingma and Kadam teachers…
a scholar, yogi, and reformer…
a bridge between ancient India and our modern world

His legacy continues worldwide through thousands of centres and practitioners.

In the lead up to Lama Tsongkhapa day this year we will explore who this great leader was and how his relevance continues to this day.

Stay tuned.

Je Rinpoche reminds us:
we didn’t come into this world by accident.
This rare human life — with intelligence, freedom, and access to the Dharma — is a once-in-a-universe opportunity.

When we remember how fragile and brief it is, our priorities shift.
Attachment softens.
Clarity returns.
The heart opens.

Reflecting on this isn’t meant to make us fearful —
it’s meant to wake us up.
To help us use this life for what truly matters.
