The wisdom that’s beyond. Thank you Khandro-la.

“…A donut run that aligns me with Vajrayogini …” Ahhh. Isn’t it always like this? I personally have never met dakas/dakinis anywhere other than backwater gas stations and lonely 1 a.m. subways. Or other such places.

Deep insight. Thank you for sharing. Water is resilient, shape-shifting, patient, powerful, life-giving, life-taking...I could go on. Water can wear away the most stubborn, ancient stone. Happy to be "made of water", any day!

Another way I've heard it expressed is "using mind to get beyond mind." I'm beginning to get a taste of that in this Troma Nakmo retreat, something about the dance between discipline and play. Finding expansion through narrowing the margins; needing concentration and a long view in order to slow down, dive deep, and feel my way. To allow "perfection" to evolve through a steady drip of relaxed effort, instead of impatiently trying to force it with ego-driven desire disguised as discipline.
