The Five Hindrances of Doubt and Aversion

Buddhism is about working with all five of the hindrances. The first step is learning how to recognize them when they arise, and we don't even know they're there. They come masquerading as something helpful, as something good, as something skillful. And if we are not on the ball, we believe that we fall for their disguise. So this recognition, this is a very key point. We have to see them for what they are, and not be deceived."
