Shambala Blog: Beginning with What We Are Already

From Shambala Blog:

Chögyam Trungpa, Beginner's Guide to MeditationPeople have difficulty beginning a spiritual practice because they put a lot of energy into looking for the best and easiest way to get into it.

We might have to change our attitude and give up looking for the best or easiest way.

Actually, there is no choice. Whatever approach we take, we will have to deal with what we are already. We have to look at who we are.
