eB 128 - Self Discovery

Jampal Norbu examines the 22nd verse of Lojong: “You have reached proficiency if you can practice even while distracted."  Transforming self concern into care for others is the core of Buddhist meditation. How then do we gauge our progress on that path? The key lies in self reflection, which makes meditation possible. With a strong foundation of self reflection, our practice is available even when we find ourselves caught by life’s distracting circumstances.
