"Enlightenment is the inner light of wisdom that is permanently free from all mistaken appearance, and whose function is to bestow mental peace upon each and every living being every day."
- Geshe Kelsang Gyatso - “Modern Buddhism” (via dancingdakini)
Biologists would have you call this thing an Armadillo-Girdled Lizard, Cordylus cataphractus, but I won’t be fooled. This is clearly a baby dragon. They also have this adorable habit of biting their own tails for no discernible reason. Which is adorable until you remember what the ouroboros is, and inevitably conclude that these things are also dark magic.
Magical dragons. It all makes sense.

"That is the goal of all our meditation, all our practice, all the understanding we bring to the layers of “I”: to let it go, to let it pass from one to another, to let the love that is within us - that is us- to awaken and spread, moment by moment, step by step, river by river, road by road, bridge by bridge."
- Tsoknyi Rinpoche (via meditationsinwonderland)
