realized that my three-day silent retreat is only two weekends away.
i hope to use this time to read, catch up on sleep, and meditate. i’ve really slacked on the latter.
any who. i’m seeking some meditation music, like Tibetan Buddhist stuff. (i don’t want like trickling water or something like that though.) there’s just so much on iTunes and i don’t know where to start.
can ya help me?

and they’re up!
The wise understand by themselves; fools follow the reports of others.
May I become at all times, both now and forever,
A protector for those without protection,
A guide for those have lost their way ,
A ship for those with oceans to cross,
A bridge for those with rivers to cross,
A sanctuary for those in danger,
A lamp for those without light ,
A place of refuge for those who lack shelter,
And a servant to all in need.
i bought this today from terrapin station.
it’s a collection of tibetan prayer flags.
they read:
i absolutely love it.
