Quote by Chogyam Trungpa

Any perception can connect us to reality properly and fully. What we see doesn't have to be pretty, particularly; we can appreciate anything that exists. There is some principle of magic in everything, some living quality. Something living, something real, is taking place in everything.

Any perception can connect us to reality properly and fully.

Summary

This quote suggests that our perception of reality should not be limited to only appreciating what is conventionally considered beautiful or pleasant. Instead, it encourages us to find value in everything that exists, recognizing that there is a magical and living essence to everything around us. By embracing this perspective, we can connect more deeply with reality and appreciate the inherent beauty and significance in all things, no matter how seemingly ordinary or mundane they may be.
