Thank you, TK, for your sharing...

Nice reflection. The video seems not working...?

A very nice reflection on KJ, TK!

Sorry, I missed your question. My advice would be just to chill. No holding your breath during this time, in other words, no vase breathing that is meant to intentionally compass the breath and control blood circulation. Breathe naturally and calmly. There are plenty of practices we can engage. How about a loving-yourself practice to treat yourself during this time?

Thank you, Hester, for sharing your beautiful flower at your heart and poem.

I love your 'serious fun'! These shape-shifter Dakinis make me "seriously" smile and enjoy all what is.

I love your reflection - left step first to continue on!

TK, thanks for initiating our curiosity. Here is the list of animal-headed Dakinis. Can you put the pictures of all the Dakinis together and create some sort of visual resource related to this topic? It would be beneficial for Dakini practitioners. https://www.pinterest.com/kenmcvicar/animal-headed-dakinis/

I love it!!!

I love all these expressions, especially Mom Dakini!

Here is the image of NAGA-SNAKE DAKINI I shared with SBT last week! week.

Well said! I like your reflection on Water Dakini.

Yes. Another favorite of mine...hauntingly beautiful and powerful...and relevant.

How do you feel a sense of "overwhelmed" in you body? Breathing in, I see myself as thick billow cloud. I am an ornament of blue sky, boundless and unfathomable. Breathing out, I feel beautiful. The waves of emotion can never carry me away.

Thanks for sharing, TK.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful story, TK.

I love your watercolor painting that gives me a feeling of your joyful effort. How about turning this painting 180-degree around for Self-generation? We practice improving our visualization by looking from different perspectives.

This picture I've taken is Japanese JIZO BOSATSU KANNON, Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva in Skt. Kushiti means 'earth' and Garba means 'womb.' It is said that the name comes from the fact that it embraces and saves people in distress with its infinite compassion, just as the earth holds the power to nurture all life. Especially she/he became a protector of deceased children. This is another picture of Kannon. Both are from the temple where I go for a walk almost every day. I hope you will visit some day.
