Beyond Delusional Hope

Sunday Talks # 17 Beyond Delusional Hope

Are you prepared for the turbulences of life?

Get Ready for the White Waters of Life

Sunday Talks #18 Get Ready for the White Waters of Life

We have completely tired ourselves out, exhausted ourselves beyond our hopefulness. We realize that life is hopeless and that any effort we put in to gain further experiences is also hopeless. Then we get into a real understanding of the space between us and our goal. That space is totally and completely full. And that fullness is what is called faith… Faith here means dedication to and conviction in one’s own intelligence… You have trust in the basic truth of what you are, who you are. 
Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche in The Lion’s Roar, pp. 28-29.
