the middle way
encourages us to awaken the bravery that exists in everyone without exception, including you and me.

training in the middle wayโ€”in staying right on the spot.

We are encouraged not to judge whatever arises in our mind. In fact,

we are encouraged not to even grasp whatever arises in our mind. What we usually call good or bad we simply acknowledge as thinking"

WASHINGTON D.C. โ€“ After almost 250 years of data-gathering, the American experiment has ended in a catastrophic laboratory explosion.

โ€œI donโ€™t understand what went wrong!โ€ sighed the facilityโ€™s chief scientist. โ€œI added a flawed constitution, an electoral system designed by slave owners, a biased and corrupt supreme court, and centuries of frothing racism, violent sexism, and misguided exceptionalism. I followed the recipe to the letter!โ€

why they're afraid

โ€œwe donโ€™t hear much about how painful it is to go from being completely stuck to becoming unstuck.

The process of becoming unstuck requires tremendous bravery,

because basically we are completely changing our way of perceiving reality

We are undoing a pattern that is not just our pattern. Itโ€™s the human pattern: we project onto the world a zillion possibilities of attaining resolution. This pattern keeps us dissatisfied and causes us a lot of suffering.โ€

@Bix

they are unsure of themselves at the deepest levels. nothing can satisfy their need for approval of everything they think, do, believe, and desire.

everything.

there's no satisfying them for that reason. they are raging psyches ready to burn down the world in their fury.
