In this short teaching, Mingyur Rinpoche discusses the difference between normal awareness and meditative awareness. As he explains, we can cultivate meditative awareness by using every aspect of our experience as a support for awareness, even painful feelings and challenging emotions. This enables us to remain centered throughout the ups and downs of our lives. This teaching was originally presented as a free monthly teaching on the Tergar Learning Community: http://learning.tergar.org/course_library/mingyur-rinpoches-monthly-teachings/
