The Fool's Errand of Going into Story - 5oct21

Writer: Lama Jigme GyatsoLama Jigme Gyatso


The pseudo-spiritual quest

to determine the “true” cause

of our anger, fear, or sadness

is a fool’s errand.


It exhausts our time

and mental resources

from that which is truly transformative

all the while feeding our self-importance.


Ask the Buddha,

ask Lao Tzu;


the key to transcending the duality

of loving peace

and hating rage


in not found

in the stories we tell ourselves

but rather by noticing and letting-go

in harmony with our breathing.


Let us conclude

with a simple

call to action


In the Tibetan tradition Lamas are supported

not by monasteries but by students

as such the production of these livestreams,

blogs, and class materials is supported

by the generosity of viewers, and listeners, and readers

just like you.
