Ok, so sometimes it’s actually “weekly goodness in your inbox.”

But I have discovered over the years some very insightful email newsletters that come delivered straight to my inbox. While not everyone resonates, they often help start my day positively and thoughtfully. Like the following quote from Ocean of Dharma, who sends out a quote weekly from the teachings of Chogyam Trungpa, who is pictured above:

EGOLESSNESS IS LETTING GO

“Egolessness” does not mean that nothing exists, as some have thought, a kind of nihilism. Instead, it means that you can let go of your habitual patterns and then when you let do, you genuinely let go. You do not re-create or rebuild another shell immediately afterward. Once you let go, you do not just start all over again. Egolessness is having the trust to not rebuild again at all and experiencing the psychological healthiness and freshness that goes with not rebuilding. The truth of egolessness can only be experienced fully through meditation practice.

There don’t you feel better now?
