On August 30, Tashigar Norte had the great pleasure of hosting Tetsu Nagasawa for an online talk titled “Living and Dying from a Practitioner’s Perspective”.

Drawing from his extensive experience as a student of Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche and a Dzogchen practitioner, Tetsu explored the meaning of the six bardos based on texts such as the Tibetan Book of the Dead. He invited us to look at life, death, change, and our own habitual tendencies with greater awareness.

His way of sharing was deeply appreciated by everyone. His sincerity, humility, warmth, and openness touched us profoundly, creating a very special atmosphere throughout the meeting. The many messages received afterward reflected this feeling:

“That was an incredible talk this morning… Tetsu’s heart is so open.”“Excelente y muy útil y sincero y sobre todo muy humilde.”“What a wonderful talk…”

Several participants also expressed a wish to access the recording. Therefore, we have decided to share it with everyone who wishes to reflect further on the many points discussed, especially on the teachings concerning the bardos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l10A0G6yKwg

We are very grateful to Tetsu for sharing his experience and understanding with such generosity. We also thank everyone who made this meeting possible, including the translators and all those who donated.
It was a precious morning of teachings, reflection, and connection that touched many hearts.

Warm regards,
Tashigar Norte Blue Gakyil
