Kamma is both inherited & new. We meet the familiar kammic patterns and programs in the heart, get to their essence in the body, release them in awareness. Guidance on new, fresh kamma then arises with heedfulness and spiritual potency.
Citta takes a personal form in this lifetime. Rather than let it be formed through social forces of craving and slinging, ongoing practice is about bringing Dhamma into our lives-pausing, releasing pressure, acting with integrity.
Rather than fight anxiety, frustration/rage & sadness, we can transmute them through the embodied mind into alertness, strength and tender-hearted concern.
The process of release transfers ideas into emotional senses and into somatic senses through the ground of acceptance and awareness. This unravels the 'I am'-'me' trap.
Recognizing that our lives and practice depend on conditions-not self- how do such conditions arise? Placing citta within the Refuge allows for intuitive commitments.
