Carefree Dignity: Discourses on Training in the Nature of Mind - Drubwang Tsoknyi Rinpoche

\nTsoknyi Rinpoche is a reincarnate lama educated in the Tibetan Buddhist \ntradition. He has been teaching students from around the world since 1990. \nBeing carefree, you can fit in anywhere. If you're not carefree you keep \non bumping up against things. Your life becomes so narrow, so tight; it \ngets very claustrophobic. Carefree means being wide open from within, \nnot constricted. Carefree doesn't mean careless. It is not that you don't \ncare about others, not that you don't have compassion or are unfriendly. \nCarefree is being really simple, from the inside. Dignity is not conceit \nbut rather what shines forth from this carefree confidence. \n--Tsoknyi Rinpoche \nTsoknyi Rinpoche's teaching style embodies a vividness that is a play \nbetween himself and his audience. His immediateness includes gestures \nand examples that entice us to understanding. Through guided meditations \nhe offers direct participation as a delightful enhancement to our \npractice. Simple, straightforward and profound, Carefree Dignity is a \nbook that captivates our intellect while enriching our awareness.
