Touchstone Therapy

 Keep a lucky mindset!
Not only do we not fix it by our anger but we make a bad situation even worse!

Touchstone therapy: Finding healing and renewal by reconnecting.
It could be locating an old friend who holds the other perspective of a meaningful shared experience.
Perhaps for you touchstone is coming across an object that meant so much to you, was lost and has returned to your hands.
For some, touchstone grounding brings value when returning home to visit and stabilize before setting off again.
While living in a solidified world such as the human realm, we easily imbue people and objects with a kind of personal sacred energy. They are your healing touchstones.  ~Domo Geshe Rinpoche ~~~~
"Pruefsteintherapie: Man findet Heilung und Erneuerung, indem man sich wieder verbindet. Vielleicht findet man einen alten Freund wieder, der eine andere Perspektive auf ein bedeutsames gemeinsames Erlebnis hat.
Vielleicht ist es fuer Dich ein Pruefstein, ein Ding zu finden, dass Dir viel bedeutet hat, verloren ging und Dir nun wieder in die Haende kommt.
Fuer manche ist es ein Pruefstein der Erdung, der ihnen Werte vermittelt, wenn sie auf Besuch nach Hause fahren und sich stabilisieren, bevor sie wieder abreisen.
Durch das Leben in einer verfestigten Welt wie dem menschlichen Bereich, verleihen wir Menschen und Dingen gerne eine Art persoenliche heilige Energie. Sie werden unsere heilenden Pruefsteine." - Domo Geshe Rinpoche ---

Like other litigious societies, we have become over-doctored and looking for that magic pill to make us well and feel satisfied. Perhaps it would be better to consider stress, lack of closure to poor past relationships, anger or jealousy as causes for our poor health... and then correct our errors. ~ Domo Geshe Rinpoche ~ "Wie andere prozessfreudige Gesellschaften verlassen wir uns zu sehr darau f, medizinisch überversorgt zu werden und halten nach der magischen Pille Ausschau, die uns befriedigt und gesund macht. Vielleicht wäre es besser, Stress, unbewältigte Beziehungen, Wut oder Eifersucht als Ursachen für unsere schlechte Gesundheit in Betracht zu ziehen.... und dann unser Fehlverhalten zu korrigieren." - Domo Geshe Rinpoche --- Sharing happiness is actually what is done in the dharma practice of the first of the Four Great Wishes. This trains us to share our cultivated joy and not simply hold it as a personal possession. The second of the Great Wishes strong

Buddhist musings for springtime........

Two explanations of the same innate view Classic Buddhism describes the innate view as the error of taking what is transitory and impermanent as permanent. All suffering arises from this misknowledge. However, I have expanded this description to understand that the innate view also bestows a full but minimum set of perceptions that are needed to allow the transmigrating consciousness of a to-be-hu man to participate within the human realm. After the breakthrough of enlightenment, aware practitioners will not discard the minimal basic and now purified innate view but will mold it skillfully into a correct conventional view. Same innate view but a non-Buddhist explanation-- Within the deeper mind of every individual person are several carefully constructed base perceptions that must be present in order for them to participate in their human potential development within the human realm. We cannot damage our perceptions by pretending the world is not there, or that we are not here, in ord
