It was a surprising pleasure to awaken each morning to lovely birdsongs and walk through the semidarkness to the Gönpa of Dzamling Gar to begin another day of the Long Life practice of Mandarava, and to feel the presence of our Rinpoche, who 42 years ago in the cave of Mandarava in Nepal miraculously received this terma practice of Mandarava in a series of dreams.
During the retreat I often had the sense of eternity in the moment: time dilation was an unavoidable reality! The inevitable last day of the retreat arrived too soon. Namkhai Yeshi kindly gave us some simple, sound advice: relax, enjoy, try to avoid extreme feelings and behaviors that promote these feelings.
