Important

If someone is to become a true student of Dharma, that person has to know that practice is an essential part of one’s life, intimately woven with one’s own experience.

Of course we need to keep our jobs and our responsibilities, but none of these become essential. Rather, they become important in support of what we find most meaningful in life – becoming a practitioner of Dharma.

―Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche
