All phenomena originate from causes…
“Essence of Dependent-Origination Dhāraṇī”

The essence of the Buddha’s teachings is dependent-origination (Sanskrit: pratītyasamutpāda, Tibetan: tendrel རྟེན་འབྲེལ་, Chinese: yuanqi 緣起). No conditioned phenomena stands alone, nothing conditioned arises from a single, self-sufficient cause – “This exists because that exists.”

And this website being very much a conditioned phenomenon, is the result of causes and conditions coming together. Most obvious among these causes and conditions are:

• Javier Uclés (Guatemala) who is the grand-architect, Viśvakarman of this website. On more occasions probably than Milarepa experienced when building the house for Marpa’s son, Javier labored on one or another part of this site only to be told: “No, I don’t want it that way. Dismantle it and build it this way.”
• Omar Vazquez (Mexico) for working on especially editing the various video and audio files shared on this website.
• Participants of the COVID19-season, virtual “Gurupuja & Gongchik Study” group who inspired this project. Your dedication to listening to, reflecting on and practicing the Dharma has made the “no-strings-attached” giving and sharing of Dharma meaningful.
