Living Wholeheartedly: Realizing the Precious Gift of Your Life

A teaching that has influenced me a great deal over the years is the Buddhist doctrine of the precious human birth. Essentially, it points to the rare opportunity we enjoy as human beings to wake up to the truth of who we really are then to share the profound joy and freedom of this realization with others.

While “waking up” may sound esoteric and impractical to some, most everybody would agree that living wholeheartedly–giving ourselves fully over to what matters most to us–is eminently practical. Indeed, it may be the very recipe for human happiness.

Come celebrate the gift of a precious human birth with Lower Lights Sangha this month. Bring a pen, paper, and deep willingness to respond to the impulse to “wake up” that beckons to all of us.
