"De todas as práticas que eu sei, a prática de Tonglen, em tibetano, "dar e receber", é uma das mais úteis e poderosas. Quando você se sentir bloqueado em si mesmo, Tonglen abre-lhe a verdade do sofrimento dos outros; quando seu coração está bloqueado, ele destrói as forças que estão obstruindo-o e, quando você se sente distante da pessoa à sua frente que está com dor, está amarga ou desesperada, ele ajuda você a encontrar dentro de si e, em seguida, revelar o brilho de sua verdadeira natureza amorosa e expansiva. Nenhuma outra prática que conheço é tão eficaz em destruir o auto-apego, a auto-indulgência, a auto-absorção do ego, que são as raizes de todo o nosso sofrimento e toda dureza do coração. Simplificando, a prática de Tonglen de dar e receber é assumir o sofrimento e a dor dos outros e dar a eles a sua felicidade, bem-estar e paz de espírito."
"Of all the practices I know, the practice of Tonglen, Tibetan for “giving and receiving,” is one of the most useful and powerful. When you feel yourself locked in upon yourself, Tonglen opens you to the truth of the suffering of others; when your heart is blocked, it destroys those forces that are obstructing it; and when you feel estranged from the person who is in pain before you, or bitter or despairing, it helps you to find within yourself and then to reveal the loving, expansive radiance of your own true nature. No other practice I know is as effective in destroying the self-grasping, self-cherishing, self-absorption of the ego, which is the root of all our suffering and all hard-heartedness. Put very simply, the Tonglen practice of giving and receiving is to take on the suffering and pain of others and give to them your happiness, well-being, and peace of mind."
