Tonglen Practice Begins To Dissolve The Illusion

The Greatest Obstacle To Connecting With Our Joy Is Resentment.

We Can Stop Struggling With What Occurs And See Its True Face Without Calling It The Enemy. It Helps To Remember That Our Spiritual Practice Is Not About Accomplishing Anything - Not About Winning Or Losing - But About Ceasing To Struggle And Relaxing As It Is. That Is What We Are Doing When We Sit Down To Meditate. That Attitude Spreads Into The Rest Of Our Lives.

Words Themselves Are Neutral. It's The Charge We Add To Them That Matters

Patience Takes Courage. It Is Not An Ideal State Of Calm. In Fact, When We Practice Patience We Will See Our Agitation Far More Clearly.

Everything Is Fresh, The Essence Of Realization.
