Most of us are so caught in righteousness, we’re afraid of truth. - Ram Dass

If somebody asks me, “Ram Dass, are you happy?” I stop and look inside. “Yes, I’m happy.” “Ram Dass, are you sad?” “Yes, I’m sad.” Answering those questions, I realize that all of those feelings are present. Imagine the richness of a moment in which everything is present: the pain of a broken heart, the joy of a new mother holding her baby, the exquisiteness of a rose in bloom, the grief of losing a loved one. This moment has all of that. It is just living truth.

A feeling of aversion or attachment toward something is your clue that there's work to be done.

We're being trained through our incarnations — trained to seek love, trained to seek light, trained to see the grace in suffering.
