What we accept we go beyond: when we bring a kind and non-judging awareness to our experience we align ourselves with the truth of how things are and open to liberating insights that lead to release from suffering.
The path to alleviating the suffering of the world leads through the gateway of meeting our own suffering with compassion. When we open fully to our own suffering, we transmute it into compassion and it can move through us into the world.
