Peter tells us:

----more----

How he cured his bad knee by doing several hundred if not thousands of prostrations.

How he had a secret despair of where his future should be when he was younger.

What do buddhists mean when they say it’s all a dream and how our perceptions are so limited.

how it is amazingly liberating to give up blaming people.

What is our ordinary mind and how it is completely limiting us.

And how real change can only happen within.

Peter McIntyre Cornish was born in England. He was educated at an English boarding school from the age of 7, where he discovered that he had inherited an eye condition that severely impaired his vision. As a teenager, he hitch-hiked throughout Europe, finally settling in London in the 60's. He moved to Samye Ling in Scotland, the first Tibetan Centre in the West, where he studied under Chogyam Trungpa. In 1974, with his wife Harriet, he moved to Ireland to establish Dzogchen Beara, Ireland's first Buddhist retreat centre, on 150 acres of spectacular coastline on the Beara Peninsula. He completed the first phase of building in 1986, formed a charity, and asked Sogyal Rinpoche to be its spiritual director.

His book, 'Dazzled by Daylight' tells the inspiring story. You can buy the book here on Amazon.
