How seeing life as like a dream and an illusion can help us begin to emerge from a pandemic with freshness, renewal, and aspiration. Lama Zopa guides an experiential practice beginning with shamatha (English: tranquility, or calm abiding) and leading into meditative inquiry, an insight practice from the Tibetan that invokes, instills, and integrates prajna, precise knowing.
