Lojong - Mind Training
Atisha
Mind training (Lojong) collection of teachings of which there are two main streams. Inspired by Atisha all are designed for applying directly to our own personal situation. In fact, the only qualification we need to practise the teaching is, as Lama Jampa Thaye has said ‘our ordinary, confused mind, full of disturbing emotions, full of self-clinging and self-cherishing. With an unparalleled directness, they allow us to transform all situations, positive and negative, into the path of awakening.
