buddhist




I am trying to take the buddhist approach to emotions, the Babaji
approach, of not identifying with the emotions, but just letting them
come and go, becoming aware of when I feel happy and when I feel sad,
and trying to not get all bound up in that.

It's really difficult, partially because I'm a very emotional, heart
based person at the core, but mainly just because I'm human, and all
humans have that problem. It's part of that inner dilemma of being
human, we're halfway in between the body and the spirit, the mind and
the soul, it's a really unique place to be, and is a great learning
experience, for our eternal souls.
