From April 19 to 21, the NKT-IKBU Mexican National Festival 2024 was held, with Gen-la Kelsang Jampa, Deputy Spiritual Director of the New Kadampa Tradition.
Almost 400 people in person, and more than 100 people online, had the opportunity to participate in this beautiful event and receive the powerful blessings of Buddha Vajrapani. Gen-la Jampa encouraged us to become true Bodhisattvas, people who love all beings and dedicate their lives to the benefit of others.
To overcome anger we have to learn new ways of responding to frustration. Since it is unreasonable to expect that we can fulfil all our desires, we must cultivate a more realistic and balanced approach to the problems of life. The methods of training our mind in this more realistic approach are included within the practice of patience. The more clearly we understand that the sole function of anger is to make us miserable, the more motivated we shall be to train ourself in patience and defeat this enemy.
