Contents:

Who are you?
Acknowledge the wave but stay with the ocean
Born with a silver spoon
Impermanence and death
Letting wisdom arise
What will you do in the bardo?
Lessons from Milarepa
Varanasi rail station
Emptiness, not nothingness
If you see something, say something
A visit from panic, my old friend
A day at the ghats
Of sleep and dreams
Learning to swim
Memento mori
Where the Buddha died
What is your happy dream?
Coming through darkness
A chance encounter
Naked and clothed
No picking ; no choosing
Working with pain
The four rivers of natural suffering
Recalling the bardos
Giving everything away
When death is good news
Awareness never dies
When the cup shatters
In the bardo of becoming
