Thankyou to everyone. Retreat was a strong experience for me. A whirlwind of influences came thru my mind and heart. I didn't manage to understand everything I saw or heard. Seems our society tries to coach us to put everything into order to be understood but sometimes it's nice to let things be..
Flowers from Nalanda..
Tibetan man chanting every morning at Majnu ka tila.
Thankyou Rinpoche.
From the after retreat space at Rinpoche's house in California,
Homage to the great ones
who have walked this earth
or whose presence has
beautified the human mind
Like lone flowers
having gone untrampled
they have held the frequency
of sanity since beginningless time
Pouring wisdom nectar
into our veins, into our
secret codes awaiting
the days of fruition
Homage to those who
look upon us smilingly
occupying the grandstands of our
imagination
ready for a standing ovation
upon our awakening
We fill our minds
with only virtuous quality
knowing this as the only
fuel for our journey
toward inner perfection
May these flowers become numerous
May they spring directly from hard rocks
and split them to soil
May they grip concrete and glass
and reclaim something lost long ago
and May they rain soft twirling petals
from a cloudless sky
this is my great wish.

When I enlarged the picture of the Tibetan man chanting, I realized that he is wearing ngakpa robes.
Wonderful prayer, Tinley. Thank you for praying it in your heart, and for posting it.
