Learn to see that it is not things that bother us, that we go out to bother them. See the world as a mirror. It is all a reflection of the mind. When you know this, you can grow in every moment, and every experience reveals truth and brings understanding.
Ajahn ChahWhen we see beyond self, we no longer cling to happiness. And when we stop clinging, we can begin to be happy.
Ajahn ChahWe practice to learn how to let go, not how to increase our holding on to things. Enlightenment appears when you stop wanting anything.
