Tyrolean Talk by P.B., June 1965: Short Path and Long Path

 

All ways of spiritual seeking divide into two classes. The first is basic, elementary, the second for more advanced people. The first for beginners is the Long Path. It takes a long time to get results, and a lot of work has to be done on it; much effort is necessary for it. The second is the Short Path. The results are more quickly got; it is an easier path, and requires less work. To the Long Path belongs the methodical yoga. It takes a lot of work to practise daily: building of character and removing of weaknesses and overcoming of faults, developing concentration of attention to stop the distraction of mind and to get control over thoughts, strengthening of willpower, and all the activities for the beginners. These are the earlier stages of meditation.

WAY OF PHILOSOPHY WEEKEND SEMINAR:

Saturday - Sunday AM November 26-27 at Wisdom’s Goldenrod

From the ordinary to the Extraordinary

Please join us for discussion, meditations and shared experience.  We are exploring intimate and ultimate reality, the Sun and the Heart, light sound and logos--turning the ordinary into the Extraordinary.  Readings from PB, Plotinus, Dudjom Rinpoche, and Jig-med Ling-pa light our way.

  

 We must not run after it, but fit ourselves for the vision and then wait tranquilly for its appearance, as the eye waits on the rising of the sun, which in its own time appears above the horizon- out of the ocean, as the poets say--and gives itself to our sight.   Enneads 5.5.8

 Suffice to ask, to wait and to listen, so that an invitation is sent sounding down the corridors of being for the unseen Overself to give its response.  The Quest of the Overself

 After you have practiced continuously over a long period, a time will come when, through fervent devotion or some other circumstance, experiences will metamorphose into realization, and awareness will be seen naked and resplendent. It is like taking a cloth off your head: Such a happy relief!  Dudjom Rinpoche.

Saturday: 10am-5pm…  Meditation 8am, breakfast 9am, lunch 1pm, meditation 5pm

Saturday evening join us for dinner, chanting, music and video.

Sunday morning:  Meditation 8am, breakfast 9am, seminar 9:30-11:30 am.

[PS: some of us will be around Friday evening for get-together.]

Food provided for lunch and breakfast.
