Meditation and Beyond
Meeting Life's Challenging Circumstances
Life will confront each of us with challenging circumstances. I am often asked how to best meet life's challenges. Perhaps a better question would be from where do meet these challenges. Do we relate to them from our usual personal "I," its habits of perception, interpretation, and reactivity or do we relate to them from our deeper self? When dwelling in our usual mind, we can predict the reaction with its accompanying fear and anxiety. But, when dwelling in our true self we effectively meet life's challenges from a consciousness of true seeing and appropriate and precise action, all permeated by the serenity, wisdom, and compassion for our essential being. In this episode we will explore in a short teaching and then practice meaningfully and peacefully meeting and transforming life's challenges.
