Lojong - 7 Point Mind Training
Lojong books at Amazon.com	A - B - C - D - E - F - G - H - I - J - K - L - M - N - O - P - Q - R - S - T - U - V - W - X - Y - Z Lojong (often translated into English as Mind Training) is a practice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition based on a set of proverbs formulated in Tibet in the 12th century by Chekawa. Practitioners undertake to connect with the world in an unconditionally positive way, and also to take full responsibility for their experience of it. Unlike many practices it does not require that one signs on to a particular system of beliefs, nor is it something one can only do on one's meditation cushion. In fact, the best practice is often done out in the world, with exactly those people and situations that upset and irritate one the most. The twin foundations of the practice are Absolute Bodhicitta, which could very roughly be translated as 'Open-Mindedness', and Relative Bodhicitta, which could be translated, again very roughly, as 'Compassion'. The fifty-nine or so proverbs that form the root text of the Lojong practice are designed as a skillful set of antidotes to the bad mental habits, paranoia, and fixed ideas that cause us all so much suffering. They contain both 'Absolute Bodhicitta' suggestions to expand and loosen up one's view of the world, such as 'Find the consciousness you had before you were born' and 'Treat everything you perceive as a dream', and 'Relative Bodhicitta' suggestions for relating to the world in a more constructive way, such as 'Be grateful to everyone' or 'When everything goes wrong, treat disaster as a way to wake up'. The last 50 years have seen a great revival of interest in the Mind Training practice, partly as a result of increased interest in Tibetan Buddhism as a whole, partly because the practice is very accessible and is capable of rapidly producing rapid positive changes both in the practitioner and in the world around him. Prominent Western teachers alive today who have helped in this revival include Pema Chodron, Ken McLeod, and Alan Wallace. A couple of 20th century teachers, Chogyam Trungpa and Osho (Rajneesh), both of whom attracted of good deal of controversy in their lifetime, also wrote influential commentaries on the text and helped to spread the practice.
