Information

You may possess the power and force of a world ruler, but unless you gain mastery over your mind, when the time of death arrives, you still haven’t attained the power of freedom.

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.

Comment by Luna Arjuna on July 11, 2019 at 11:14pm: When you are trying to proceed on the path, you should not be looking for external signs of accomplishment, such as auspicious dreams, or visions, or clairvoyance, or other signs of power.

The real sign of accomplishment is the decreasing of your disturbing emotions, and that your mind is becoming more peaceful.

~ Yangthang Rinpoche
