Transcript
[0:00] Good morning. Let's practice.
[0:37] Taking our seat. Just as we are. Right. In the midst of our world. Part of this world. Creating this world.
[1:26] Coming to sit. With the knowledge of our own basic goodness. With nothing to prove. No agenda. Nothing to hide.
[2:14] And we could. Sink into the unfolding processes of our body. This breathing body. Releasing. Some of our fixed identities, fixed notions of self. And allow ourselves to relax, to unfold into this ever-present motion, the breath, breathing in. As that flows throughout our body, rippling through muscles and skeleton, organs, blood flow, electrical system. And breathing out in this ever-present motion and process.
[4:08] Ever-moving experience.
[4:31] Diving like dragon. Dragon is our wisdom quality. It's not knowledge. It's this plane with the fabric of reality. Diving through this motion, this forward unfolding of the universe.
[5:32] When dragon rises to the sky in summer. We create thunder. Breathe lightning. Create the heat. We writhe in the sky, flashing wisdom. We are inscrutable. We don't need to explain, reason, why, prove ourselves. We just are. We are. Appearing and disappearing at will in the clouds. Sometimes visible, sometimes not. Come out. With this wise action.
[7:31] In the fall, we come down to earth. In winter, we go underground. We sleep. In spring, we are reborn. A new birth. With this natural cycle of wisdom, of Dragon, of Earth, of seasons, everything in life has seasons. Connecting to our Dragon wisdom. There's no need to struggle against. Our inhalation, our exhalation, our summer, our winter, our fall, our spring. Instead, we connect with this natural, great wisdom, deep and ancient within us. Working with and creating this always unfolding, moving forward reality.
[9:42] We can dive down deep inside our body. And feel our writhing, powerful Dragon.
[10:13] A guardian. A being of magic, of power, of wisdom. That is inside us, that is us.
[11:03] Feeling this energy inside us. Pulsing and coursing through our body.
[11:32] A turquoise dragon. Turquoise dragon. A beautiful dragon.
[12:11] As we breathe, ever moving forward. Not just knowing our basic goodness, but being it. Every cell of our body. Exuding the wisdom of Dragon.
[13:20] Nothing to hide, nothing to prove. Plain in space. Not bound by time or space.
[14:45] Cultivating your natural, ancient, deep wisdom of body, of heart, of Dragon. And acting from this.
[15:43] As we dive through the breath.

Walking the PathsNow step back and see all four at once — sequential and simultaneous, each needing the others, present or absent in every area of your life. Where are you already walking the path, and where are you being called further in?
Five Stages of AwakeningDragon isn't a final destination — the path continues endlessly. Step back and see the whole map: drowning, treading water, swimming, flying, radiating, with Tiger, Snow Lion, Garuda and Dragon meeting you along the way. You can be flying in one part of your life and drowning in another — find where you are, and the practice that meets you there.
