Day to Day

Dear friends,

As I scan the posts and comments, I am soaking up the thoughtfully posed intellectual curiosity. Yet, this morning, I am finding a disconnect (my disconnect, not that of the writers) to the here and now. Day to day, how to let the TSK vision inform and evolve yet still put one foot in front of the other?

Example: This morning I read Ron’s “Imagination” posting, and was struck by “how transitory conventional knowledge is….” When I’m quiet and reflective, I relish and eagerly nod “yes” to this thought. But in my work world, in the present moment, I need to expend considerable effort on transitory knowledge, even if it lasts only for a minute or less. New personal knowledge: until now, without realizing it, I’ve disdained transitory conventional knowledge, or the process of transitory knowledge, in favor of aspiring to those capital letters in the TSK vision. Now I’m going to explore respecting transitory conventional knowledge while allowing it its temporality–maybe in the moment even transitory conventional knowledge has a capital letter.

About Lesley

TSK arrived in my consciousness through classes and retreats taken at the Nyingma Institute. The path leading me to Nyingma Institute was skillfull means, the path keeping me there is devotion, the path I'm intrigued with is knowledge in its pure form. The particular type of knowledge I am interested in is MindBody or BodyMind (without the hyphen)--the depths of our being.
