Recognizing even small instances where one applies bodhicitta's teachings can be a source of encouragement.
This fosters confidence & inspires further exploration of proficiency in embodying these enlightened teachings.

Padmasambhava played a pivotal role in merging Buddhism with Tibet's pagan religion, Bon.
Initially, Buddhism faced resistance in Tibet, but Padmasambhava's teachings led to harmony.

Waiting for a 'thumbs up' from a higher power or Zen master may result in missed opportunities & a lack of self-trust.
Instead, cultivate inner confidence and trust in your own judgement.

Being compassionate is a more beautiful way to live than being in self-defense mode.
It strengthens, enlightens, and makes one a positive influence, benefiting both yourself and those around you.

This is the power of genuine compassion and spiritual practice - it has the ability to undo negativity and limited views, creating space for real change and understanding.

When compassion arises naturally in these moments, you know the dharma is taking root in your daily life

We must examine our intent in deeper and deeper ways.
If you're doing things the wrong way, you have to let go of what doesn't work and realign with what does.

When you accept life as it is, you see who you are.
Only you can look into your mind and know what is true.

Align your spirit with what you do, or whatever you succeed in will leave you dissatisfied.

It's essential to be aware of one's own experiences and to recognize the truth within them.
The ability to recognize the validity and truth in one's actions & life is key to one's personal growth.

When people judge you, look at it - but weigh it in your own heart and mind to see if it's something useful.

This is what self-reliance is - you validate your own experience.
You have to rely on yourself and see what's real in your own mind, not look outside for validation.
#Lojong #MindTraining #AhjanSamvara #BuddhistTeachings #AjahnSamvara #Buddhism
As Buddha advised, one should test and reflect upon teachings to ascertain their validity.
It's important to experience life and validate for yourself from your own first-hand experience.
