Cattāri Brahmavihārā

The last year has been a series of almost unrelenting lessons about the fragility and unpredictability of conditioned existence and if I ever had any idea that I was somehow more developed or above loss and gain due to my practice it is clear that I was mistaken. Like a rudderless ship I find myself blown about the open water by the Eight Worldly Winds but just knowing that there is a safe port (the Triple Gem) is enough to keep me going.
