Contemplation: Maintain Awareness

After reviewing the guidelines for practice, take the following as your object of contemplation:
All you who would protect your minds,
Maintain awareness and your mental vigilance.
Guard them both, at cost of life and limb--
Thus I join my hands, beseeching you.
Santideva, The Way of the Bodhisattva, p. 65

  1. More and more I find myself wishing that there ws a Tendai sangha in Yakima (or at least on this side of the mountains). Gratitude, great gratitude for the contemplations!
