"Any perception can connect us to reality properly and fully. What we see doesn’t have to be pretty, particularly; we can appreciate anything that exists. There is some principle of magic in everything, some living quality. Something living, something real is taking place in everything”
                                     Chogyam Trungpa , Rinpoche
                                     The Sacred Path of The Warrior


After the first day of my first Miksang class, what I understood conceptually about the above quote, became real—became direct experience.

To have connected with this unconditional path of visually experiencing my world somehow felt like coming home.

Recognizing the abundance and richness that is present in my everyday world and having the ability to experience it with open eyes, an open heart and a quiet mind has been a gift that has filled my life with tremendous joy and satisfaction.
