Description

"We have to remember that we are always changing. Every second we're changing. We're changing from moment to moment. As the watch goes 'tick tock, tick tock' we are also changing with every second. So what this means is that while we might have a problem in the first moment, in the next moment we have an opportunity to be a new person who doesn't have that fault. We have the choice that we can actually be a new person in every moment." - Gyalwang Karmapa

Today's episode is from a teaching that the Gyalwang Karmapa gave to school students back in 2013 where they asked him questions about meditation, caring for the environment, becoming a happier person, and much more. The Karmapa sat on the floor with the children and his translator, David, and carefully addressed all of the different topics that they raised.
