Rinpoche gives the following advice: Bodhicitta subdues one’s own mind. Don’t show anger and pride, speak respectfully to everyone. A Dharma center is there especially to help the mind. Practice mindfulness of your speech, a director needs that. There are two actions, one is within the buddha’s holy mind, one is within your mind. Without the suffering of the obscured sentient beings, there is no compassion, no bodhicitta, no bodhisattva and no buddha. Without buddha there is no buddha’s action, without buddha’s action, there is no good karma you can achieve. Therefore, all your happiness comes from sentient beings. They are most kind, special and dear. On the basis of this you think: I am responsible for the happiness of all sentient beings. I will be mindful of that every day.
