Tibetan_Ice Posted April 24, 2013 Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has seen the movie called "My Reincarnation" ? http://myreincarnationfilm.com/film/chogyal-namkhai-norbu/ Comments? Thanks. TI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheshire Cat Posted April 24, 2013 Yeah, seen it. It looks like and advertisement directed to Norbu's disciple so that they can accept his son as a real Master. It seems that there's someone who simply doesn't accept him as a legitimate master. Hence, the need for this film. Just my opinions of course. Apart from that, the film is really nice.

Jetsun Posted April 24, 2013 It is an interesting film, my opinion on it seems to differ from a lot of people though, my impression of Norbu that he was kinda depressed and his son seems like a decent guy and well suited to run a big organization but I didn't get the impression that he had done a lot of practice, he started studying late and then practised in his car while driving to work etc, my understanding is that it requires a lot more than that to become a master.

Apech Posted April 24, 2013 I thought it was a very honest film which showed Norbu to be human and as someone said sometimes depressed and kind of frustrated by things but kept on going. His son is a bit angry and becomes a business man first before getting involved in teaching. I thought it was refreshing to break out of the usual guru worship nonsense. The point being these masters are not gods .. they are human. For instance it shows queues of people lining up to ask the lama questions about their life and practice and sheds light on how inane this situation is. As if some one can solve all your problems for you in a couple of minutes. Also impressive is how Norbu cures himself of serious illness through practice. Overall a nice film. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RiverSnake Posted April 27, 2013 A good film. The amount of responsibility that rinpoches take on is pretty overwhelming. The ending was quite funny. My 2 cents, Peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
