Our Perpetual Struggle Against Life Obscures Our Clear, Unbiased Mind

‘Our perpetual struggle against life just as it is, is like a thick cloud over that continually obscures our clear mind, unbiased mind.

But once we’ve gained some sense of that relaxed, open mind- through formal meditation practice or by experiencing gaps and other moments of specialized in our daily life-

we can develop an appetite for whatever helps us pierce through the clouds.’

– Pema Chodron, How We Live Is How We Die
