Tips on Meditation and the Spiritual path - idea #189
from your Buddhism expert



Today I came across a delightful comic
illustrating the simple, yet profound, devotion that
many dogs feel for their owners.


I was a particularly sickly child. I remember having
a devastating bout of something when I was in Junior
High. Isn’t funny how profoundly emotional we can
get when we’re ill? Even now, I remember being
astonished at how irrationally sentimental I felt at
that time.


How do we know when we are being “way” over emotional?
Let’s face it folks, when even a Campbell’s Soup
commercial, can drive you to tears… then it could be
safe to assume, that something is afoot!





Mom, Dad and Sister had left to go somewhere they
felt was important and so I was left to sit in bed,
and watch “The Wizard of Oz”; which of course, you
guessed it, was driving me to tears. But I really
wasn’t alone. My little dog “Bernie” was sitting
vigil with me.


So what! This was a dog, not a doctor. This was not
a shaman, come to lay hands upon me, it was merely
a barking mop that we called Bernie. But you know
what, when that sweet little dog:
• slowly walked into my room,
• jumped on my bed,
• sat beside me,
• stretched it’s front legs across mine,
• and rested her chin upon my legs,
• while sweetly gazing up at me;
I truly felt a little better.





Gaze long and hard upon the face of your cat or dog.
There is NOT a lot of forehead there, my friend.
And you know what that means; there’s not a lot of
cerebral cortex there either. Obviously devotion;
spontaneous, heart felt devotion does not require
a great deal of brain power!


The ability to feel devotion comes, factory installed,
in every brain stem.





Devotion effects our emotions, awareness, bodies,
auras and environment. And, according to the
teachings of Buddhist Tantra, devotion can be a
short cut to experiencing great bliss. That is why
the two mental yogas “Essential Devotion” and
“Essential Meditation” can be found on page 3 of
“Quick Path to Happy Peace.”
