Karmapa Advocates Understanding Emptiness As a Means to Compassion

His Holiness the Karmapa today delivered the last public teaching of his epic, two-month journey around the United States of America. The Karmapa resumed the topic of enacting compassion, drawing links from it to the topic that had been scheduled for this evening session, that of emptiness. The teaching formed the second session in a two-session event entitled “A Call to Compassionate Action,” organized by the Nalandabodhi community, headed by Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche, and translated by Mitra Tyler Dewar.
