the path of the sacred warrior

you are a warrior when you have the bravery to face who you are, without fear, embarrassment, or denial. this is the basis of the spiritual path.

-- Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche.


the premise of buddhism is that we all have basic goodness. when we stand in this space, we develop confidence and strength. not to be confused with power, strength is soft. it is gentle. it is compassionate. not to be confused with being nice. or being a jellyfish.

see things as they are, but without judgement or preconceptions.

do you trust what you see?
