From Costa Rica
Thank you for your teaching, wisdom, and reminding us we all have 2 or three minutes a day to develop this important habit of mind to develop conscious compassion for ourselves and others.
from Vancouver Island, BC, Canada
So warming. Such deeply felt kindness, love, compassion. I feel filled with gratitude. Thank you so much.
Just wounderfull.. Thank you so much.
When there are text slides, could you consider to read them out loud? I am at times listening without watching the screen, and then miss out on the text only.
Started my day today with an intention. May we be all free of suffering, may we all live in peace. Thank you so much. Susanne, Germany
When Thupten Jinpa led me through this practice I experienced a profound sense of connection with myself and others that filled me with joy. A brimming, calm, oneness with all beings joy- I’m humbled and exulted. Thank you.
Wonderful, so deep for a better understanding and at the same time so useful for daily life.
Thank you so much

Mile maith agat ( a thousand thank yous). 😊
thank you for your warm and wise words – for us, for our loved ones and for the world, which we all and I can use for our deep connected meditation – I do thank you from the depth of my heart – all the best from Munich in Germany 🙂
So well explained!!! I can hear this for hours….truly love how Jinpaji lead us into compassion practice.
I loved this thank you so much
Thank you so much for your warm and Health practice with us. I feel so compassionate for the entire world.
Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much! That was lovely.
Thank you so much. Really enjoyed this session. Made perfect sense. As compassion is a natural state to me, I’ve always been shocked by people who cannot express it…. I thought they were heartless, but now I know that they’ve missed out on the ‘training’ during their life-journey/experience. I’m glad I’ve received my lessons and I can be of service to others. Isn’t that what we would all aspire to?
Excellent! I connected with every piece of this. It felt like someone understands my thoughts fully. This has encouraged me and inspired me to continue forward in my path. I’m very grateful. Thank you Dr. Jinpa and to everyone making this summit possible.

Wonderful talk. I really appreciate how Thupten Jinpa explains the interconnection between emotions, empathy, compassion, and his practical explanation of how we can cultivate compassion in ourselves and our society.
Thank you so much for the guided meditation session and explanation of aspiration-awareness-intention. Lately, I want to run from my feelings because we’re surrounded by so much suffering. But during the session with you, bringing kindness and understanding to my own fear instead of judging myself to be uncaring, I was able to be with that tender heart of compassion for myself and others. The session brought me to tears mixed with sadness and joy. My aspiration is to remember kindness.
wonderful teaching thank you so much
Dr. Jinpa was most impressive in expressing his knowledge and experience! His sincerity is obvious and heart felt…eliciting compassionate feelings from me!
That was such an inspiring presentation. I thoroughly enjoyed every word that was shared. I particularly love the idea of setting intentions for the day in such a simple way and how impactful that can be in cultivating awareness.
Thanks so much Thupten! so much peace, kindness and clarity transmitted even remotely. Loved the practice and also how he made us concious of our western biases.
Thank you so much for your words and your guided practice. It seems to me so simple, and the impact was powerful. And thank you for your offer on how to integrate this practice into daily life and that you mentioned that it’s about being kind to ourselves. Thank you so much 🙂
This is a complete awakening for me on so many levels. Incredible research shared with so much love and compassion by all the presenters in this program. I am filled with great appreciation for finding this space and hearing from these incredible teachers.
