CHOGYAM TRUNGPA RINPOCHE

Today parinirvana of CHOGYAM TRUNGPA RINPOCHE

Born: 5 March 1939, Kham
Died: 4 April 1987, Halifax, Canada

When you practice meditation, you should sit without a plan. It should be meaningful without it being a big deal. You simply sit on the fl oor or in your chair. If you question wheth­ er you are sitting properly or not, then you might begin to perch. Instead, just sit, very simply and directly. If you are wait­ ing for something to happen, that is a problem of future orien­ tation. If you are oriented to the present, you just do it. It’s a very blunt approach to life, blunt and realistic. There’s no ro­ mance involved, except for the joy of the present.
