When we’re holding
the mental formations of despair
and suffering, we can look and see that
this has been born from that; suffering is born
because we are in touch with an image from
the past. The reality is that we are safe,
and we have the capacity to enjoy
the wonders of life in the
present moment.
When we recognize
that our suffering is based on images
instead of current reality, then living happily
in the present moment becomes
possible right away.
