In this excerpt from Kopan Course No. 27, Rinpoche explains how the hallucinatory mind sees everything as inherently existent

Lama Zopa Rinpoche explains the special meaning and purpose of this human rebirth in this excerpt from the Seventh Meditation Course, Kopan Monastery, Nepal, 1974.

Self-grasping ignorance believes the I to be concrete and inherently existent

"All existing phenomena, whether deemed good or bad, are by nature beyond duality, beyond our false discriminations."

With this human body we have the opportunity to practice virtue and abandon nonvirtue

Things exist in mere name and are merely imputed on the base.

A Dharma talk explaining the mind, or cognition

A teaching on the mind, the death process and the ultimate nature of the I

Excerpts from teachings on Geshe Langri Tangpa's Eight Verses of Thought Transformation 

The I and the aggregates are merely imputed by the mind

The I appears to exist, but it can't be found anywhere on the aggregates

The omniscient mind is the continuity of consciousness that is completely purified of all obscurations.

Rinpoche gives an oral transmission of Lama Tsongkhapa's text, In Praise of Dependent Arising, and teaches on emptiness, karma and bodhicitta

Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave these teachings in Crestone, Colorado, in June 2008.

Teachings given at Tara Institute, Australia on June 2, 2006.
