Blessing must arise from within your own mind. It is not something that comes from outside. When the positive qualities of your mind increase and the negativities decrease, that is what blessing means. The Tibetan word for blessing … means transforming into magnificent potential. Therefore, blessing refers to the development of virtuous qualities you did not previously have and the improvement of those good qualities you have already developed.

BELOVED COMMUNITY
Beloved community is formed not by the eradication of difference but by its
affirmation, by each of us claiming the identities and cultural legacies that
shape who we are and how we live in the world.
