I have recently read a book, The Joy of Living by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche. This book was so beautiful and enlightening. By the end of it, Rinpoche in a short summary says that learning about our mind in depth, meditating, observing the flow of our thoughts as they come and go, teaches us that there are no differences between you and the others as, in the end, we all are connected. We all want to be happy and we all know what fear, anger and aversion are. The more we dive into ourselves and understand the universal nature of the mind, as if minds were trees linked by roots all of the universe, the more we become accustomed and symbiotic with the ancient prayer of the Four Immeasurables, that goes like this:
May all sentient beings have happiness and the causes of happiness.
May all sentient beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering.
May all sentient beings have joy and the causes of joy.
May all sentient beings remain in great equanimity, free from attachment and aversion.

devotion
Sogyal Rinpoche, “Real devotion is an unbroken receptivity to the truth. Real devotion is rooted in an awed and reverent gratitude, but one that is lucid, grounded, and intelligent.”

Year 18 1000 lights. An offering to my precious teacher. We keep the fires burning. Forever in my heart we are one. Like an angel, you took me under your wing, taught me, protected me and taught me how to dance in the sky. Not a day goes by without you in my thoughts. I send light to you and to all who have lost someone dear to them. May it illuminate the way, cast aside the shadow of fear and doubt, cut through your pain, delusion and darkness like a sword and ease all suffering. Until I see your smiling face again.. Thank you. ཐུགས་རྗེ་ཆེ་། 💎 Om Om Om. 🙏🏽 #lobsangtharchin #gurudevotion #guruyoga #lamachöpa #drigug #diamondway#rinpoche #tibetanbuddhism #tibet #buddhism #memorial #magic #soshinesthelight #monlam #mönlam #memorial #meaningfulpost (at Rashi Gempil-Ling First Kalmuk Buddhist Temple in the USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmB74vcuxlv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

每一步似乎都需要很長時間,可是無論你覺得多麼乏味,都要繼續準確地、始終如一地遵循你的練習時間表。這就是我們如何利用我們最大的敵人——習慣來對付它自己。
Each step may seem to take forever, but no matter how uninspired you feel, continue to follow your practice schedule precisely and consistently. This is how we can use our greatest enemy, habit, against itself.

'Foxes Meeting at Oji' by Utagawa Hiroshige, 1857 :: [Red Pine :: Bill Porter]
* * * *
“As Buddha said, “What you are is what you have been, what you will be is what you do now.” Padmasambhava went further: “If you want to know your past life, look into your present condition; if you want to know your future life, look at your present actions.” ― Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

Perhaps the deepest reason why we are afraid of death is because we do not know who we are. We believe in a personal, unique, and separate identity but if we dare to examine it, we find that this identity depends entirely on an endless collection of things to prop it up: our name, our biography, our partners, family, home, job, friends, credit cards. It is on their fragile and transient support that we rely for our security. So when they are all taken away, will we have any idea of who we really are? Without our familiar props, we are faced with just ourselves, a person we do not know, an unnerving stranger with whom we have been living all the time but we never really wanted to meet. Isn't that why we have tried to fill every moment of time with noise and activity, however boring or trivial, to ensure that we are never left in silence with this stranger on our own?

Kindness is a transformative force that heals both others and yourself. As the Buddha said,
"Radiate boundless love towards the entire world." When you act with kindness through your body, speech, and mind, you not only uplift others but also cultivate inner peace and fulfillment within yourself. Let your actions be guided by compassion and empathy, creating a positive impact on those around you and fostering harmony in the world. - GCDR

Be kind to yourself as you proceed along this journey. This kindness, in itself, is a means of awakening the spark of love within you and helping others to discover that spark within themselves. Tsoknyi Rinpoche

A veces pienso que el mayor logro de la cultura moderna es su brillante manera de vender las bondades del samsara y sus distracciones estériles. La sociedad moderna me parece una celebración de todas aquellas cosas que nos alejan de la verdad, que hacen difícil vivir para la verdad y que inducen a la gente a dudar incluso de su existencia. Y pensar que todo esto surge de una civilización que dice adorar la vida, pero que en realidad la priva de todo sentido real; que habla sin cesar de «hacer feliz» a la gente, pero que de hecho le cierra el paso a la fuente de la auténtica alegría.

For all yall interested in Buddhism and one of my favorite western missunderstandings about Buddhism which is the INSANELY incorrect assumptions about what meditation is, I really suggest listening to Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche talk about meditation. He's a lot of fun and just a cool guy who (obviously, not a surprise) really gets it and I like how he talks about it. Like I could hear him talk about meditation for hours, just a fun guy who gets it.
TLDR - and I could go on this for hours - Meditation is really something you can do every day in basically every action you do in life with practice and one of the large goals in a lot of Mahayana branches of Buddhism is just to obtain that near constant state of meditation through all actions of life, but I DIGRESS I will prevent myself from going off when yall can just listen to this guy

Meditation on Emptiness and Clarity is but Mental Consciousness
When about to settle in the natural way of mind-essence, some people merely try to stay conscious and aware. Then they rest in this state of mental consciousness with the feeling: "Ah, how clear!"
Other people fixate on a state of utter void as if their mind had gone blank.
Both of these cases, however, are simply aspects of consciousness clinging to a dualistic experience.
Whenever this duality occurs - between the clarity and the one perceiving clarity, the emptiness and the one perceiving emptiness-look into the nature of this stream of rigidly fixated mindfulness.
By doing so, you pull up the stake to which the dualistic mind, which holds to a perceiver and something perceived, is tethered, and make room for the naked, wide-open natural state of awareness — a luminous emptiness without center or edge.
To apprehend in a nondual way this luminous and open, natural state is the essence of awareness. It is the dawn of naked wisdom, free from the veils of fixated experience.
Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
