Practice is like climbing a mountain

November 22, 2022
Practice is like climbing a mountain

When you hike through the mountains, you have to climb one peak after another. Our mind is the same. Once we solve one problem, there is always another to solve. So, you repeat the process of noticing and solving one problem after another. The purpose of practice is to constantly repeat the process. Don’t try too hard to do well or get frustrated because you still have a long way to go. Just keep persisting, like when you hike up the next peak in the mountains.

Wisdom For You

Are You Lonely?

When we close our hearts, we feel lonely even in the midst of a crowd. Feeling lonely is like shutting our eyes in broad daylight and crying out, “It’s dark! Turn on the light!” If we just open our eyes, we will see that it is already light outside.
 
Likewise, if we just open our hearts, we won’t feel lonesome even when we are alone.
