I can see a real Buddha in this video. As you can see all high lamas, such as Lama Zopa will not be effected from the physical problem, he is always happy and peace in mind. For us, the lay people, we will always get stuck with the problems that we are facing, i can't imagine myself in any stroke patient's position. But all high Lama or senior practitioners with have or reach the stable peace stage in their mind, and all external problems will not able to effect them, because they don't create internal problem for themselves. since there's no internal problem, they will not be any external problem. Eg: if i having fever today and i feel that i'm suffering, then i will be suffer. But if i having fever today but i think that i'm going through my purification and i will be even better after the purification, so i will be happy with my fever. This is all mind game, but all high lama have reach this stage of mine, and i think before we can dream of Buddhahood, we should have a stable and peace mind first.
I'm strongly believe Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche have the power to heal himself, but it's all depends on his student samaya. I have seen the video that Namdrol posted, it's quite sad after i watch it, but after i think, there might be a deeper meaning behind this video.
Lama Zopa Rinpoche is showing the world his stable and peace mind will not be effected no matter what has happen on his body. Because he have no attachment with anything he owns, even his body. Personally i think this is a good example for me to learn.
Secondly, he might showing the world how bad his body condition is but he can be showing another video in the near future, to show the world he have heal his body through certain practice and his body is completely under his control. Or many something else.
Personally i don't feel good to see a video regarding a High Lama suffer on behalf of students, but at the same time, i think that must be a deeper meaning behind all his actions. Just some sharing, and what do you guys think ?
much care
