Nothing came through this week, but I love this so here ya go.
“Always stay alert, therefore, and watch what your mind is doing. Think about it. Over countless lifetimes, have you not been deluded, fallen under the power of your negative emotions, and as a result had to undergo—time and time again—the sufferings of birth, sickness, old age, and death?
“Yet still you cling to samsara [the cycle of death and rebirth] as if it were a happy place. You take things that are impermanent to be permanent. You work frantically to amass possessions you will never be able to keep, without ever being satisfied. Surely now it is high time to start observing your mind.”
-Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
