Your mind is dharmakaya.
You could never be reunited with it,
Nor could you be separated from it.
It is so close that you do not recognize it.
It appears to you, yet it is so profound that you do not grasp it.
It is so simple that you do not believe it.

I have been enjoying Heart-to-Heart sessions with Tim Olmsted and also the Dharma Geek sessions with Cortland Dahl. I’ve been meticulously following every single course on Vajrayana Online for the last few years, and I’ve gained much benefit to help my practice. I am also very grateful to Kunsang Palmo, Edwin Kelley, Kasumi Kato, Lucas Henriksson, Myoshin Kelley, and Antonia Sumbundu for the wonderful guided meditations and live practice sessions!
