LAMA Ringu Tulku Rinpoche is bringing a refreshingly simple mantra to Scotland's Buddhists: be lazier.

Rinpoche, nicknamed the "lazy lama", says worrying is useless and that time is better spent relaxing.

He tells his disciples that regular meditation is one good way to counteract the stresses of modern life, although it can take years to learn how to do it properly.
