read the new post from my pilgrimage to India website and, who knows, i just may give you a long distance hug or two. or seventy-two.
There’s an event that Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche staged with his students in the 70s. He invited them all over to his house and asked them to bring their pot and paraphernalia. The students all thought that it was going to be a gigantic smoke in.
However, after a brief intro, CTR asked all the students to put their stash in one big pile. Then he began throwing the pot and stuff into the fire, one by one, while chanting, “We are burning self-deception. We are burning self-deception. We are burning self-deception.”
hahahaha! burn, baby, burn. oh, Trungpa, thank you for the Crazy Wisdom you’ve given us.
