For There To Be Night, There Must Be Day

Rewire Your Instincts

How do you become a person who will always do the right thing, naturally and automatically? Lama Marut offers us a way to "model perfection" by impersonating people we've elevated to saint-like status. A truly religious person lives a spiritual life which is not intended to get something but rather to end something: to put an end to the way the mind screws stuff up.

Being and Becoming the Goal

Lama Marut helps us see how to realize the goal by being the goal. As he often says, if we want to live a happy life then practice happiness. If we're interested in achieving the enlightened state then pretend to be an enlightened being, and, as we do, little by little we convince ourselves we are. The means and the ends become the same.

This podcast was taken from a no holds barred teaching on "Living the Perfect Life, Here and Now" given at the Mahasukha Center, Los
Angeles, CA on November 3 & 4, 2009.
