Mangala Shri Bhuti - The Link

Speaker: Stephanie Kindberg. Stephanie reflects on how the Covid-19 pandemic has renewed her determination to view adversity as an opportunity to cultivate lungta by practicing self-reflection, patience and sympathetic joy. Lungta, "windhorse," is the subtle energy that determines the direction our mind pursues. As thoughts arise, we decide how to react to them and it is this reaction that determines our attitudes, self-confidence and determination. Training our minds to embrace challenges develops our capacity to engage fearlessly with suffering: the essence of the bodhisattva path.
