Video Teaching Description
Language: English
In this short video teaching, Rinpoche answers a student’s question about the difference between confidence, pride, and dignity. Unfortunately, our confidence is usually mixed with pride. When it is genuine, confidence manifests as dignity. We can first recognize and then slowly release the pride–but this takes time. Genuine dignity pervades our experience at all times, regardless of our status or position.
