Khandro-la's teachings on the long sadhana in Kechara Journey are instilling some "new perspectives" in my practice. I am referring to new curiosities and perhaps understandings about inner offerings - this external imaginary experience and internally, what potential is here. The container as the skull cup has represented to me "going to the charnel ground"...this fearless attitude of drinking blood, destroying ego. I am imagining now too the purification, generation and transformation aspect on a new level or in a newer way. I am still allowing it to unfold without trying to solidify or analyze it. But something has shifted for me, and the "ritual" of offering - imagined or real - is becoming closely tied to cutting through this ordinary perception, conceptions, all the obstacles to sacred dignity and clear seeing. I would love to hear of others' experiences with these teachings and practices we are learning.

For me, Ellen, with the new integrated part of the Long Sadhana within the Short Sadhana, I'm finding more of a flow - almost like something was missing before, but I didn't know what it was until now. Daily inner offering is not complex, but rather too easy! That one component has expanded more than my practice because instantly, my day felt more subtly integrated and worth while to participate in. Life has begin to feel more embodying because of it.
