Healthy Sense of Self

In this month’s teaching, Mingyur Rinpoche teaches how we can get in touch with a healthy sense of self and how we can free ourselves from the unhealthy sense of self that is so common in today’s world. To do this, we look closely at the sense of “I” and use this to see our innate qualities.

You can discuss this teaching in the Monthly Teachings Forum under the topic Healthy Sense of Self.
