Thought Transformation Part One

The Eight Verses of Thought Transformation is an important text from Tibetan spiritual writings known as lojong (mind training). The root text was written by the eleventh-century meditator Langri Tangpa Dorje Senghe. These verses explain how we can see life through the eyes of compassion, and not through our self-cherishing ego. The more we meditate on thought transformation, the more compassionate we become. You meditate on these verses by reciting each verse and then pausing to contemplate its meaning. Then try to apply it to situations in your life. This will help you to truly transform your way of thinking and acting. Remember, these verses are to be practiced, not just recited. This is part one of a two part series.
