+  Devotion, or mögü in Tibetan, can be divided into two aspects: möpa and
+küpa.  Möpa means "longing" or "wanting," and küpa means "humility,"
+"respect," or "being without arrogance."  With küpa, you are not pretending
+to be somebody who has reached a higher level of wisdom.  So in devotion,
+longing and humbleness are put together.  That state of mind brings openness
+to the teacher and to the dharma.
+  With küpa, the longing of möpa does not become purely an emotional
+indulgence or demand on the part of either the student or the teacher.  The
+devotion of küpa is the respect or sacredness that comes from that experience
+of aah [the space before first thought]!  Küpa arises because every highlight
+in your life has always been touched by the sacredness of vajrayana, even
+before you knew it.
