You have to address your own level of fear, and that is called compassion – simply being with ‘what is there’. Accepting the whole texture of what you feel without having to act out, or lash out in some primitive bid for self-preservation. We have to trust the texture of what is happening and relax with the ‘rip-tides’ of what we feel. If there’s some space, then that becomes possible. It’s a ride though … but if we reject ‘the ride’ … we get ridden … and the spurs bite deep!

'Rays of the Sun' by Ngakpa Chögyam

'Rays of the Sun' brings together three booklets that were very popular in the 1980s and an article that appeared in Caduceus magazine.  The chapters cover the topics of the four noble truths, eightfold path, karma, kindness and refuge.  "The four evening talks contained here deal with the themes studied by everyone exploring Buddhism in depth: the four noble truths, eightfold path, causality, compassion and refuge. This material is discussed in creative contemporary English, and presented from a perspective informed by Dzogchen."
