Reflection and Practice
Reflect on all the different stages and cycles of your practice. There is a trajectory over time and weekly ups and downs. See how the various Ox-Herding images can speak to those cycles. In particular, notice how effort, the sense of the ox, and the sense of you as the practitioner change with each stage or cycle. What happens when you release comparison and judgment and simply meet how practice is right now?
