Seven days of Lamrim — twenty-one meditations, scheduled four per day, into one week — the essence of all 84,000 of Buddha Sakyamuni’s teachings. And thus, the wheel turns. Next week it repeats once more in silence according to our guru’s instruction, passed down one spiritual guide at a time, through Atisha, Je Tsongkhapa, and into the world of today via Geshe-la’s kindness. My meditations are gradually becoming less distracted as I intentionally recognize them arising, and set them aside. Re-occurring themes are surgery and job related. I am stretching and strengthening my ability to sit through things and contemplate clearly, this is the essence of lamrim, to contemplate the causes and conditions for enlightenment to occur, one at a time, over and over, until they become your nature.

I am also most fortunate to have found a partner who will walk, and sit, and contemplate this path with me, thank you sweetie :)
