But how do we reconcile the idea of enlightenment with what we see when we look in the mirroramp;mdash;when insecurities, doubts, and self-centered tendencies arise in our minds? Dzigar Kongtrül suggests that we need not feel \"doomed\" when these experiences surface. In fact, such experiences are not a problem if we are able to simply let them arise without judging them or investing them with so much meaning. This approach to experience is what Kongtrül calls self-reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelf-reflection is a practice, a path, and an attitude. It is the spirit of taking an interest in that which we usually try to push away. When we practice self-reflection we take liberation into our own hands and accept the challenge and personal empowerment in Kongtrül's title: it's up to you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47161470845168,"sku":"2940169210323","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169210323_p0.jpg?v=1763767596","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169210323","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
