BOOKS BY ORGYEN CHOWANG:
SHOW INTRODUCTION:
Today I’ll be talking with Orgen Chowang Rinpoche, a Buddhist meditation master and the author of an absolutely beautiful book, Our Pristine Mind: A Practical Guide to Unconditional Happiness
Today we’ll talk about discovering unconditionally happiness, and uncovering the natural state of our Pristine Mind, that’s always within us.
That plus we’ll talk about deflated egos, internal demons, changing our mental diets, traveling the pristine mind highway, yaks and clouds, the power of leaving your mind alone, and why we might all want to look beneath our own lumpy beds.
