54 Empathetic Joy, part 1

from Fall 2011 Shamatha Retreat Hosted by B Alan Wallace

We come back to the cultivation of mediate, starting with oneself, but not an immutable self, a dependently arisen self. Alan again comments on our way of evaluating our practice: "Meditation, what have you given me this week?" No, no, no! All that comes up is a maturation of our karma From the lo jong (mind training) teachings: everything that comes up, transmute it into fuel for the path. "This happened. Others see it as poor you. I take it as a lesson to deepen my practice and wisdom." Become the alchemist of your life. From the perspective of rigpa: with deep intuitive faith seeing all experiences arising as coming from Buddhas to help us become enlightened - we can have an ongoing flow of gratitude for this! The one taste of felicity and adversity Meditation starts at 14:21
