Guru Devotion
Samdhong Rinpoche
What are the benefits of relying on a guru? What are the qualities of both the guru and the disciple? According to Samdhong Rinpoche, “Guru devotion is the basic foundation of a spiritual journey.” In a rare video presentation for Jewel Heart, H. E. Professor Samdhong Rinpoche, the first elected prime minister of the Tibetan Exile Government and the former long-time Director of the Central Institute of Higher Tibetan Studies in Varanasi, gives a teaching on the meaning and practice of guru devotion.
