Been feeling a little down lately, and when I do I usually turn to a text like the Bardo Thodol--the Tibetan Book of the Dead. I'm not a Buddhist, but their spirituality contains a certain logic that can calm the mind in troubled times. Take for example this excerpt from 'The Prayer for Refuge From All Terrors of the Between':Now when I suffer by the power of negative evolution,May the Archetype Deities dispel that suffering!When reality crashes with a thousand thunders,May they all become OM MANI PADME HUM!Enjoy my big buddha belly :) your usually scheduled content resumes tomorrow...
