Changing Views
For,
as the Buddhist view has consistently demonstrated, it is the
perspective of the sufferer that determines whether a given experience
perpetuates suffering or is a vehicle for awakening. To work something
through means to change one's view; if we try instead to change the
emotion, we may achieve some short-term success, but we remain bound by
forces of attachment and an aversion to the very feelings from which we
are struggling to be free.
