  1. Lama Surya Das _ Letting Go Of The Person You

    We all have certain desires and undesired outcomes related to whatever possible course and attitude we take in life, whether it be at the larger macro scale {what shall I do with the rest of my life?} or at the micro level {as in, what route shall I take to work this morning}. These include all the myriad choices we make each hour and each day. These choices determine our karma and our destiny. It's no accident, nor any great mystery, how this evolves; although one would have to utterly omniscient to understand all the many gross and subtle interconnections and causative links that determine happenings and outcomes.

  6. Lama Surya Das _ Letting Go Of The Person You

    Non-attachment is not complacency. It doesn't imply a lack of caring and commitment. The philosophy of non-attachment is based in the understanding that holding on too tightly to those things, which in any case are always going to be slipping through our fingers, hurts and gives us rope burn.

  7. Lama Surya Das _ Letting Go Of The Person You

    With every breath, the old moment is lost; a new moment arrives. We exhale and we let go of the old moment. It is lost to us. In doing so, we let go of the person we used to be. We inhale and breathe in the moment that is becoming. In doing so, we welcome the person we are becoming. We repeat the process. This is meditation. This is renewal. This is life.
