You Are Not Your Pain
You
can’t go preventing pleasure and pain, you can’t keep the mind from
labeling things and forming thoughts, but you can put these things to a
new use. If the mind labels a pain, saying, 'I hurt,' you have to
examine the label carefully, contemplate it until you see that it’s
wrong: the pain isn’t really yours. It’s simply a sensation that arises
and passes away, that’s all.
