On occasion there are people we meet in life who have an immediate effect on us. What strikes us is the strength of their un-self-centered presence, their confidence, the wisdom in their eyes or the warmth they radiate. Encountering such people awakens our intelligence, curiosity and longing, perhaps inspiring us to look deeper into the meaning of our ordinary lives. Dzigar Kongtrül Rinpoche is one of these people.
