Your Passport to a New World Beyond Stress, Struggle, and Useless Pain
- There is no moment that does not have meaning. Every moment has meaning. The pain that we have experienced in most moments has been due to not understanding the meaning of the moment.
- We cannot be in psychological pain without resistance, which points to something outside of you as being responsible for the pain. The pain cannot be separated from the resistance.
- Instead of using us, the pain of resistance can be used for revelation.
- Psychological fear does not exist without being identified with something from the past.
- We cannot learn from any moment that we resist. Resistance is separation, judgment and false certainty.
- It is the consciousness that is the problem-maker, and the solution to the problem-maker is a new awareness of it.
- Useless pain is our continued complicity with the reincarnation of conflict. Useful pain is is the realization of our complicity.
- Our existing relationship with pain has never changed. The only thing that has changed is what we blame for it.
- If we do not awaken to a new relationship with our own pain, then nothing will ever change, either individually or globally.
- The pain that we see as a problem is the appearance of an invitation to change our relationship with life.
- Stop kicking pain down the road. Be present to the pain instead of passing it along.
- We are blinded to our actions whenever we are identified with a desire.
- Be the observer of the reaction, as opposed to unconsciously serving it.
- When we no longer punish others for being who they are, they can no longer blame you for the pain they are in.
