real yogis in the Himalayas, or on Main Street?

All this posturing and judgement surrounding conflicting world views in all of our circles, where sometimes defending one’s identity even over opinion is paramount.

This kind of defense of worn mindsets is now infecting nearly every one of our circles, including the yoga and new age communities, where conflicts of worldviews can be deftly obviated when we reflect deeply on the manner that true minds of clarity and insight navigated the unimaginable difficulties faced by the aeons old Tibetan cultural treasures as they were digested, in part, by the ravenous Chinese memes...

Yet some thrived with the bounty that the situation created for the spread of their advanced civilization’s source codes.

This was exemplified in a story of a Lama, after many years in the Chinese gulag, where he told his friend that he almost lost it “three times” under the cruel oppression exerted over him...

His friend asked “lost what?”

He said he almost lost his “compassion for the Chinese...”

It is really curious to me by what means someone would arrive at such a benevolent conclusion?

And still even more curious to me how many of us have done little to cultivate a stance of wisdom and compassion for ourselves, or our closest friends & family members, over our trifles and commentary on the very grave and mostly trite questions of the day...
