A reading of the timeless teaching of Naropa's - "The Summary of Mahamudra". English version by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche and Erik Pema Kunsang
Nฤropฤ (1016-1100) was an Indian Buddhist Mahasiddha. He was the disciple of Tilopa and brother, or some sources say partner and pupil, of Niguma. As an Indian Mahasiddha, Naropa's instructions inform Vajrayana, particularly his six yogas of Naropa relevant to the completion stage of anuttarayogatantra. He was also one of the gatekeepers of Vikramashila monastery which is located in Bihar.
Mahฤmudrฤ (Sanskrit: เคฎเคนเคพเคฎเฅเคฆเฅเคฐเคพ, Tibetan: เฝเพฑเฝเผเฝเฝบเฝเผ) literally means "great seal" or "great imprint" and refers to the fact that "all phenomena inevitably are stamped by the fact of wisdom and emptiness inseparable".
Music: David Parsons - 'Abode of Shiva' https://www.discogs.com/artist/308912-David-Parsons

28th November 2014. Jame Low gives a public talk in Crediton, Devon, UK, organised by Wendy.
What gets in the way of us being at ease? Anxiety is part of the human condition. How can we understand it from the point of view of Buddhism and of therapy? โฆ The royal road to happiness and relaxation is not to believe the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, but to look. Look at the world, look at our unfolding potential, see what is there, feel our response, evoking the widest range of responses in ourselves. In this way we will find ourself - being there in the moment. It is that easy but it is also that difficult! Why? Because we wonโt let go of what we know. That is the ongoing work in being at ease with ourselves and with others. ~ James Low

Itโs easy to get the idea when reading about Zen ,and even reading Joko Beck, that our practice on the cushion is about โnot thinkingโ.
Yet our Ordinary Mind practice asks us to pay close attention to our feelings and thoughts - where they come from and where they lead.
Closing the gap between 'Zen' time on the cushion and my 'everyday life' is the heart of what we do. How does my Zen practice show up when my everyday 'self' has to make choices, judge, and act in the real world?

Should Zen stop believing its own publicity? Zen's USP is as 'a special transmission outside the sutras', and in this view our lineage charts the preservation 'mind to mind' of this indefinable 'one'. But what if we saw transmission instead as the linking of the discontinuities of our life-worlds, of our non-separation from all that is? We could then see the lineage as a process of permanent creative rupture allowing our tradition to develop, change and self-correct.
What if we saw the lineage as more like the letters in a stick of Blackpool rock?
By so doing we might see our teachers, and they might see themselves as less separate and less special, as being simply aspects of the relation of their sanghas to the wider world. By so doing we might better avoid repeating the mistakes of the recent past, of the suffering, the disorientation and disillusionment that result when Zen takes itself and its teachers too seriously…
