"Transformation of the Heart"

Yesterday I started this eight-week course at the East Bay Meditation Center. It's facilitated by Larry Yang, who I've taken other courses with, and he really brings out the troops. Everyone loves Larry, and with good reason: He's smart, incisive, and down to earth.

I found this statement of his particularly useful:

"When we notice we're not the people we aspire to be, that is actually the beginning of the practice. That is where you have a choice. We can't change anything we're not aware of."
