Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche on Birthdays, Appreciation, and the Prajñāpāramitā

In this short video, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche shares his thoughts around the oddities of birthday celebrations and expresses his gratitude and appreciation to everyone involved in making the profound teachings of Prajñāpāramitā accessible to the world. "But wisdom is not intelligence. Wisdom is much more... beyond any of the things that we value. One can be smart, one can be intelligent, one can be educated, but it does not necessarily mean that we have wisdom, and where else is the wisdom of the Buddha taught in its most complete form, but in the Prajñāpāramitā."
