Introduction Welcome to my humble blog, a way to share some of the wisdom and insights I have gained from studying with my Lama, H.E. Prince Ratu Pandji Pandita, Lineage Holder of the Balinese Sakya tradition of Indonesian Vajrayana Buddhism. Ratu was an inspiration to all his students as living example of the Buddha's kindness and a true warrior of compassion. He was an amazing teacher who was able to breathe life into the Buddha's teachings and taught us many termas that were exclusive to the Balinese Royal families. I am eternally grateful to have studied and served him for over ten years before his untimely passing in May 2004. I am not a Buddhist academic; just a simple man trying to live life according to the Buddha's teachings. It is my heartfelt wish that some of these posts inspire you to follow your individual passions on your journey to enlightenment.
