Practice should start to filter into ordinary life - Illusory Advice

 

 

Apprentice: I guess that my involvement with you both has short-circuited enough of my neuroses for me to feel relatively comfortable. Now that I can dissolve myself into the void and taste the aliveness of each moment, part of me just relaxes because life has never been this pleasant. Don’t get me wrong, I have plenty of uncomfortable times where I can see my emotions going haywire, but life seems more manageable. What do you think of this rationale?


Teachers: Practice should certainly start to filter into ordinary life so that it becomes enlivened with the sparkle of emerging view. This will be uncomfortable when you notice habit patterns and neuroses, but pleasurable when you relax into view.
