Understanding

With a determination to accomplish The highest welfare for all sentient beings, Who surpass even a wish-granting jewel I will learn to hold them supremely dear.

Whenever I associate with others I will learn, To think of myself as the lowest among all, And respectfully hold others to be supreme, From the very depths of my heart.

In all actions I will learn to search into my mind And as soon as an afflictive emotion arises Endangering myself and others, Will firmly face and avert it.

I will learn to cherish all beings of bad nature And those oppressed by strong sins and sufferings, As if I had found a precious Treasury very difficult to find.

When others out of jealousy treat me badly With abuse, slander, and so on, I will learn to take all loss And offer the victory to them.

When one whom I have benefited with great hope Unreasonably hurts me very badly , I will learn to view that person As an excellent spiritual guide.

In short, I will learn to offer to everyone without exception, All help and happiness directly and indirectly, And respectfully take upon myself, All harm and suffering of my mothers.

I will learn to keep these practices, Undefiled by the stains of the eight worldly conceptions, And by understanding all phenomena as like illusion, Be released from the bondage of attachment.

Self Realisation

It's all in your head. Yet, belief is one of the most powerful healing tools we have in our therapeutic arsenal."
You are not your body

You are not your mind

You are not your emotions

Since the body, mind, and emotions are constantly changing and thus can't be said to be the permanent you, who are you? You are the consciousness that can witness your body, mind, and
emotions in action. This is your Real Self. Please appreciate what good news this is - you are not limited to your sense perceptions, your thoughts, or your feelings. You are the infinite awareness.

The more you identify yourself with the Inner Witness, the freer you are and the more potential you have to control your body, mind and emotions. You can act instead of react. The freedom
is far greater a wealth than all the gold in the world, for if you had all the gold in the world, you would instantly begin worrying that you would lose it. By not attaching yourself to anything that
can be lost, like your body, mind, or emotions, you cease being a reactive slave and begin at Peace, for your Real Self, your Witnessing Pure Consciousness is infinite, eternal, blissful Peace.
