It does no one any good, and that is the task at hand here, I believe. Not denying, not suppressing, but instead feeling completely and then choosing love over what constricts the heart. Not reacting from habitual blaming, separatist stand, but responding instead from an island of calm. Equanimity.<br /><br />And thank you so much for caring. Much metta to you as well.Marguerite Manteau-Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17956537059369707663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6166459572149699816.post-39278428882370716052011-04-03T05:56:05.350-07:002011-04-03T05:56:05.350-07:00First Noble Truth is the truth of suffering: We mu...First Noble Truth is the truth of suffering: We must acknowledge the real condition of our suffering and see it through without avoiding it or meeting it only half way. <br />Is "training to be unaffected" like building more walls, growing a bigger shell? Are you trying to avoid the suffering? We want to be affected - this is how we can see through our illusions. Emotions are only our illusions being dismantled by reality... Have courage on the path! mettasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6166459572149699816.post-12347889572006220132011-04-02T19:03:39.217-07:002011-04-02T19:03:39.217-07:00Pooja, thank you so much.
