Join Buddhist teacher, artist, and author Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche at the META Center in New York City next week for “Uncommon Kindness,” a three-part series of meditations to awaken the heart. Running the evenings of Wednesday through Friday (10/10-10/12), the teachings will show us how to overcome our limited focus of self-concern, giving us the tools to forge lives filled with empathy and kindness.

Until then, have a read of Pema Chödrön’s latest Tricycle article “The Fundamental Ambiguity of Being Human.” Pema is a current student of Rinpoche’s.
