The way you experience [pain] can change so much depending on your attitude.

[You] can dramatically change [your emotions] to be more altruistic, more loving, more compassionate, more attentive, and especially to have an inner sort of confidence and strength that you know that you have the resources to deal with whatever comes your way.

Enlightenment is eliminating mental confusion, eliminating hatred, jealousy, mental toxins, cravings. That's very simple and straightforward. Whether you can do it or not is another matter.

There is definitely openness to others' suffering that is dealt not with distress but with compassion.

If there is a remedy or a cure, a solution to a problem or difficulty, why worry?

Changing your attitude has a curative effect... Maybe you can go directly to a change of mind, a change of attitude.

Negative emotions like hatred destroy our peace of mind.
