The Gift of Repetition
I recently noticed I have written over 100,000 words since beginning my Dharma Journal blog on 10/18/16. If I were intending to accomplish another Ngöndro practice, I would have been done in less than five years. This should be an inspiration for others to know it can be done. If I had aspired to write that many words, I may have experienced obstacles. This is why aspiration is only the first step. Accomplishment is the important thing. And this only happens when we dive into our passion to be of benefit for others without thinking of time.
Spiritual practice is free of time and place—and numbers. The magic of 100,000 repetitions of anything is that we become free of the number. Our sense of time and place dissolves into a seamless experience of cause and result. No longer bound by the habits of mind, we flow into the intention of practice with every waking moment. This is bodhicitta, the natural uncontrived awareness of our wisdom mind.

Our collective bodhicitta has now accomplished over one million OM MANE PADME HUNG mantras. This not only benefits our practice, it also spreads compassion to all beings equally. Thank you for your generosity. And thank you for supporting the Dharma Center with your material gifts. Both mantra and material help the Dharma repeat and echo throughout the three times and ten directions.

Much Love,
🙏🏼 Michael

Endings and Beginnings
My mother-in-law, Kitty (short for Katharine), passed away last Friday. Another life ends. Another life begins. One incarnation makes way for another. Those of us left behind will begin to live without Kitty, so...
