“A mudança climática, que tem afetado diretamente o ciclo das águas,
está anunciando um novo estágio na nossa jornada evolutiva: é tempo de
purificação. Estamos sendo levados a nos desidentificar do ego, com
todas as suas crenças e condicionamentos, de forma que possamos abrir
espaço para uma coisa nova. Esse processo passa pela harmonização do
feminino, o que requer o desenvolvimento de qualidades como aceitação,
cooperação, gentileza, receptividade e confiança.”

Via Daily Dharma: Personality Transformation
Practice
can change the personality, yes, and hopefully for the better. That’s
the idea of spiritual training, of what we call in Tibetan lojong,
attitude-transformation or mind-training. All the practices—ethical
training, meditation or mindfulness training, wisdom and love
training—are to be a better person, but it is also to realize who we are
as we are.
