How do you reconcile a commitment to non-violence when faced with violence? Why do the poor often seem happier than the rich? Must a society lose its traditions in order to move into the future? These are some of the questions posed to His Holiness the Dalai Lama by filmmaker and explorer Rick Ray. Ray examines some of the fundamental questions of our time by weaving together observations from his own journeys throughout India and the Middle East, and the wisdom of an extraordinary spiritual leader. This is his story, as told and filmed by Rick Ray during a private visit to his monastery in Dharamsala, India over the course of several months. Also included is rare historical footage as well as footage supplied by individuals who at great personal risk, filmed with hidden cameras within Tibet. Part biography, part philosophy, part adventure and part politics, “10 Questions for The Dalai Lama” conveys more than history and more than answers - it opens a window into the heart of an inspiring man.

His Holiness the Dalai Lama: Kalachakra Tantra Initiation
|
|
|
In the summer of 2000 His Holiness the Dalai Lama traveled to the monastery in Spiti, high in the Himalayas, near the Tibetan border, to give the complete Kalachakra teachings to thousands. The higher meditations of the Kalachakra Tantra were highly secret, but because of past and future events, there is now a tradition of giving the initiation to large public gatherings.
The Kalachakra initiation has been passed from generation to generation for thousands of years until the present day. His Holiness received the initiations and the transmission of teachings on the Creation and Completion Stages from his Vajra Teacher Kyabje Ling Dorje Chang, the Ninety-seventh Patriarch to Tsong Khapa's Throne, and the transmission of the Commentary to the Root Tantra from Serkhong Tukse Rinpoche.
Mystic Fire Video and our production company, Hither Hills, has followed closely the unfolding of the Dalai Lama's teachings for some years now. We have published, edited and recorded many of His Holiness' Buddhist teachings in the west. This event will make the library of the teachings complete. Naturally, when we heard that he would be giving this unprecedented complete transmission of the Kalachakra, we were interested in participating in its documentation.
We found an able partner in His Holiness' Foundation for Universal Responsibility, and embarked upon what has become a fruitful collaboration. This is the first ever in-depth recording of the Kalachakra teachings and initiations.

Considered one of the greatest influencers of our time, the Dalai Lama has spent his life teaching people how to be happy. Being happy is not only our right, he teaches, but is clearly the principle force that drives our lives. Our ability to attain a lasting happiness, however, is not so clear. The path of inner transformation begins with developing an understanding of our true nature. Once this door opens, one naturally develops a feeling of compassion and acceptance for oneself and others. In these difficult times, people are looking for answers to finding inner peace and happiness and arguably the greatest teacher shares important insights to getting there.
