Then with organ donation, I think organ donation is very much a bodhisattva attitude, very much like a Buddhist thing. If somebody really wishes to, genuinely wishes to, if you do it because you have to, not like that but if you really wish to benefit someone by donating one of your organs, then I think that’s the greatest gift, the greatest generosity, there’s nothing more superior than that you know.

We have a practice called Chod, that’s in imagination, you give your body in imagination to everybody. That’s just in imagination, you don’t really do it. So organ donation, you are really doing it, so it can’t be bad, that’s what I was thinking.
