sharpen tools for your heart and mind
Breathing in I recognize and take the suffering of others.
Breathing out I recognize and offer happiness to others.
Breathing in I recognize the ignorance of others, their error of perception; that they are a single self.
Breathing out I recognize their happiness as interconnected with all and everyone.
This morning I’m reminded of the incredible accomplishments of the teachers of the sacred whispered lineage. Reading some of the appreciations in the forward of “As it Is” by Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche I am reminded of just how great his accomplishment was. The words of those offering testimonies have special significance because they are themselves perfect examples of accomplishment and compassion. They aren’t given to hyperbole or self serving promotion. The real deal as we say today.
In recognition of the devotion and practice of our lineage I will strive to develop my own – for the benefit of all sentient beings.
