Gaining Insight from Obstacles
Using
meditation or therapy to try to shut down parts of our experience is
ultimately counterproductive. We do not have to be afraid of entering
unfamiliar territory once we have learned how to hold experience within
the gentleness of our own minds. Learning to transform obstacles into
objects of meditation provides a much needed bridge between the
stillness of the concentrated mind and the movement of real life.
