Description

For the next two weeks, it's Losar (Tibetan New Year), a special time to reflect on who we want to "grow up" to be this year.
In this quick talk and meditation (starting at 6:08), I'll explain why it's not just spiritual narcissism to aspire to become a fully awakened being. Instead, a vast aspiration like that points us in the direction of our true selves.
Then I guide a meditation to lead you through the process of connecting with your deepest aspirations and receiving blessings from your wise inner self to help you practice in alignment with your buddha nature.
Happy Water Tiger Year! May we all be safe, well, and free from suffering.
