The Dawn of Virtue
We
all enter the spiritual path as ego-based beings, and as such we have
ego-based hopes and fears. Practice is virtually never what we expect.
We feel like we’ve got it all wrong, thinking, 'The more I meditate, the
worse I become.' My teacher, Gendun Rinpoche, always responded to this
by saying, 'When you see your own shortcomings, it’s the dawn of
qualities. If you only see your qualities, there’s a problem.'
