Ngakma Mé-tsal Wangmo - A Vicar of Vajrayana

“It is the Vajrayana teachings on integration with all aspects of being in the world that I have received from Ngak’chang Rinpoche and Khandro Déchen, and that I do my best to pass on to our students, that I so treasure about our lineage. There is no area of life that is ever separate from practice; whether we’re in a business meeting with the board, eating paella and drinking Prosecco with friends, roaring with laughter at a bad joke, hang gliding across the Grand Canyon, walking in the wind with the hounds on the hill, singing the blues, stringing beans, or attending a dying friend. Whether we’re on the bus, on the stage, or on the run, on a roll, on the mend, or on the make, on the toilet, on the edge, or on our last legs and last breath . . . there is nothing but practice. The essential practice of recognizing the one taste of emptiness and form, of wisdom and compassion, of manifesting the non-dual play of our awareness and kindness at all times.”
