Today we'll be looking at the 1999 book, The Essential Chögyam Trungpa, edited by Carolyn Rose Gimian. Chögyam Trungpa was one of the most influential figures in the development of Buddhism in America. As the first Tibetan lama to teach in English, he coined such phrases as “cutting through spiritual materialism”, “crazy wisdom”, and his pupil Alan Ginsberg‘s favorite “first thought best thought.” He is the founder of Shambhala Buddhism.
We’ll focus on a section of this book that speaks to the awakening of the heart and seeing the beauty in things as they are.
Each podcast episode will also include the preparatory meditation attunement techniques suggested in the Edgar Cayce readings and will then be followed by a few minutes of meditative silence prior to closing readings.
