Speaker: Dungse Jampal Norbu. Dungse-la explores how the practice of bodhicitta (awakened mind) includes investigating one's own egoic reactions in daily life. Holding onto our history with self-importance results in emotional baggage that leads to habitual reactions in the present that cause suffering. Our emotional baggage is not who we are; it is not intrinsically existent. We can transform it as it surfaces through self-reflection using lojong mind training teachings like "transform obstacles into the path of awakening". Using the four immeasurables to meditate on our "enemies" and objects of hurt or heartbreak can change our relationship with them, turning them into a source of inspiration. Waking up includes letting go of the dream.
