Tenzin Palmo teaches that everyone carries a Buddha within. When overwhelmed, visualize a small golden Buddha inside you as a grounding presence that helps you calm down and find steadiness.
Tenzin Palmo said we all have the potential of that Buddha within us. Sometimes when things get a little bit too crazy, I do imagine that little round, slightly chubby golden figure sitting inside of me and kind of weighing me down, not in a negative way but in a positive way, grounding me as he's just sitting there. I think we all know the image. When things get a little bit too hectic, or if the emotions get out of control, I remind myself of that quote and the fact that there is that Buddha somewhere inside of me. And if I can re-find that, then I can center myself and be more calm.
