Vajrayana--aggressively attacks the ego

           One way of doing this is through the use of slogans

 

Slogans are temporary/ specific to you for the purpose of training

 

They are not affirmations /they are not attempts to improve one oneself etc.

 

You don't need to tell anybody when you're doing this practice

 

General pattern

 

1--Remember the slogan throughout your day

 

2- Notice each opportunity to bring the slogan to bear on your present life experience

 

3--Notice your emotions and allow yourself to feel whatever you feel

 

3--Feel emotions in the body  

 

4- Notice the craving or aversion in the emotions

 

5- Give this a voice; speak it aloud if you can
