Do It Yourself

There is no way for others to do the work and for you to reap the results. Reading someone else's blueprint of mental progress will not transfer it's realization to you. You have to develop them yourself. p. 21*

If I learn nothing else from the 14th Dalai Lama, the admonition to do it myself is enough. And this is just the beginning.
