Lions Dance - 4 Rounds - Part 1

In this meditation we once again move through the levels of concentration, only to discover that all of these images—ocean, sky, sugar crystal, heartbeat—were never the meditation itself, but a warm-up to prepare the mind for the real object. The true meditation begins when we invite one of our teachers to sit before us and choose one of the beautiful qualities that we see in them. We learn that this quality is actually coming from our own karmic seeds, not from inside the teacher.
