Rinpoche explains how the practices of the 3 Doors are designed to help us overcome individuality and expand our sense of self beyond ourselves to those we’re in relationship with, to our community, and, ultimately to all sentient beings.  He shares his personal experiences in creating the 3 Doors Academy in relation to this.

https://vimeo.com/110576982/933839e0a6
Rinpoche shares his vision of how shifting into collective awareness can lead to social change.  He encourages us to bring the collective awareness and wisdom we have gained through our 3 Doors experience to create positive change in our own spheres of interest –business, education, government or community.

https://vimeo.com/110576983/86ada34f42
Rinpoche first reminds us that hosting to dissolve a pain body can only work when we are in the unbounded space of Refuge.  He then focuses on the nature of sacred art, explaining that any creation of mind can be a work of sacred art if that creation comes from unbounded spaciousness, awareness and warmth.  This extends to expressing yourself honestly, saying what you mean from that same place of space, awareness and warmth.
