"Why are we not enlightened yet? It is simple! Because we did not give up cherishing ourselves and acting careless about others. If you want to experience happiness for yourself and others, start cherishing them instead of feeding the self cherishing thought.In reality this is what has caused you all the suffering since beginningless rebirths. Therefore, if somebody harms you, instead of blaming the other, direct the anger towards this one, which is your true enemy. Keep the harm inside. In this way there will be no anger towards others. And where there is no anger, there is no enemy.Rinpoche compares this method with shooting a long range missile exactly on the target. Cause this enemy of yours, the self cherishing thought, to burst into a thousand pieces. This video was extracted from a teaching that was recorded in Kathmandu, Nepal on December 10, 2017.
