Turn this around, as I am sitting here unable to swim, my favorite exercise that at one point in the past I heard myself say, "If I can't swim, then I know it is time to die!" I, not my injury, set me up for failure. Seeing the positive in oneself, works a lot of pain out naturally...your comment above shows your potential.

Grief from clinging to what no longer can be. I also found fear. Fear from clinging to idea of need for security in the future. Both of course originating in attachment to fixed self . . . <br /><br />A process of realization. Unfolding with every conscious breath, every moment sensing the body, every thought examined with wisdom.<br /><br />Suffering, as gate towards liberation.<br /><br />Thank you for your enlightened comment.<br /><br />Much metta to you.Marguerite Manteau-Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17956537059369707663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6166459572149699816.post-19692945731785252472011-05-01T05:59:06.874-07:002011-05-01T05:59:06.874-07:00are you sure unpleasantness and stress have an ext...are you sure unpleasantness and stress have an external cause? Try to see where it is coming from. Projections of the mind are likely playing tricks again. Is it the past, a fear, a belief we never questioned, let's have a look...
