I'm off this morning To La Casa de Maria out in Montecito for a half day Mindfulness and Meta Meditation retreat. I've been looking forward to this all week.
1st truth is Suffering
Everybody suffers in this world. Some privately, some silently, some at the top of they're lungs, among friends, among strangers, even alone. Sadly we all suffer.
2nd truth of Origin
Identify the origin of spiritual and material suffering in life. Look at that thought. Allow yourself to understand your participation in it's creation.
3rd truth in Cessation
Healing is possible for all of us. Practice and realize the cessation of creating suffering. Stop feeding the fire! Let go.
4th truth is the path away from suffering
There is a way to end suffering. The Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path. Find it and follow it as your own.
