A common space for harmonic peacemakers
As we have already seen, reversing the attitude of not wanting to suffer is the whole basis for transforming suffering into our spiritual path. This is because we simply won’t be able to turn suffering into the path as long as anxiety and irritation continue to eat away at our confidence and disturb our mind.
The more we arrive at actually transforming suffering into the path, the more we will enhance and reinforce all our previous practice. This is because our courage and good humour will grow all the more, once we can see from our own experience how suffering causes our spiritual practice and qualities to blossom.
It is said that by training gradually with smaller sufferings, ‘step by step, in easy stages’, then in the end we’ll be able to handle big suffering and difficulties too. We must go about it like this, because it is extremely difficult to have an experience of something which is beyond our level or capacity.

People really need to learn to gradually let go of themselves, not to dwell on things that have already happened and relationships that have gone sour, nor to let temporary unhappiness affect the joy that is about to come

The capacity to be alone is the capacity to love. It may look paradoxical to you, but it’s not. It is an existential truth: only those people who are capable of being alone are capable of love, of sharing, of going into the deepest core of another person–without possessing the other, without becoming dependent on the other, without reducing the other to a thing, and without becoming addicted to the other. They allow the other absolute freedom, because they know that if the other leaves, they will be as happy as they are now. Their happiness cannot be taken by the other, because it is not given by the other.

What is the most endearing gesture you can gift to yourself? What truly gets the feelings of love flowing? For some it will be two hands across the heart. For others, it will be one hand placed gently atop the other. Perhaps a hand to the cheek or the shoulder. Use such a gesture the next time less positive emotions threaten to knock you off balance. You see, you may not be able to count on love from the outside, but it is always right Here for the giving. And as you know: what you give out, you get back.
You are so very loved.
