The transformative practices of Mind Training demand full-blooded engagement with every aspect of personality, and the vivid and good-humoured exploration of preferences. Any and every type of endeavour can be engaged as a means of embracing Mind Training: horse riding, cooking, scientific research, and all the arts. This is the approach of the drubthob chenpo, the mahasiddha. Whatever style of mind, style of energy, or style of physicality a practitioner displays, they are all ornaments of awakening. They are individual indications of how to practise transformation. They are the natural style of the individual in this life and are there to be embraced and appreciated. Awakened being is totally connected to confused being. Awakening arises from delusion. Practitioners practice as they are.
