Tips on Meditation and the Spiritual path - idea #190
from your Buddhism expert
When approached by the haggard homeless and told of
their hunger, is it malicious or just stupid to
merely tell them to eat?
A hungry man does not need to be told to eat, he
needs to be fed. Likewise when another takes us
into their confidence and tells us of their anger
and resentment towards another, they do not need us
to foolishly mouth encouragements to forgive or self
righteously warn them of the social, physical,
medical, psychological, emotional or spiritual
dangers of anger. No, what they require is not to
be told TO forgive, but to be told HOW to forgive.
Any dolt can preach on the need to forgive, but only
a true master can take us by the hand, and lead us,
step by step, through the process of forgiveness.
Not so that we compound our rage with guilt and self
loathing, but so that we can actually feel our anger
fade away; just as a drop of dew is melted by the hot,
August sun.
The next time you feel a current anger or an old
resentment, turn to page 12-13 of “Quick Path to
Happy Peace” bring Liberation from rage into the
Path of Concentration so you can explore even the
possibility of letting go.
Then turn to page 14-15 and bring Liberation from
rage into the Path of Insight so that you can
actually set space to exercise the wisdom of
letting go.
Now, turn to page 16-17 and bring Liberation from
rage into the Path of Compassion so that the power
of love for others who also suffer from the ravages
of resentment, can fuel the Sutric Questions coup
de gras upon the foe of rage, on pages 18-19.
My friend, I present to you Buddha’s lost spiritual
system to transcend any and every suffering. All you
have to do is learn it and practice it.
One of my intermediate students is going through a
really stressful health challenge. Let me tell you
why I'm so very proud of her.
When her fears wake her, in the middle of the night,
instead of binge eating or crying herself to sleep
she bravely gets out of bed, pads over to her
meditation cushion, opens up her copy of “Quick Path
to Happy Peace” and practices the instructions that
she has received. She practices what she was taught,
she feels better, she goes back to bed, and she
quickly falls back asleep. These teachings work, but
only if you practice the instructions that you have
received.
