B. Alan Wallace, 12 May 2010
This morning we practiced Settling the Mind by coming in through the senses with the phrase “In the perceived, let there be only the perceived” as a preparation for observing the mind. After a short introduction on the practice in which we touched briefly on the very interesting fact that the appearances that we see are not of a material nature in themselves. Anyway, enjoy the practice!
