The Buddha's Reassurance Interview

The Buddha says at one point, if it were not possible to free the heart from entanglement and greed, hatred and delusion, I would not teach you to do so. All of it shows itself when we make the space of attention to begin to listen but it's not easy necessarily. And what we do together is give it voice, give it words, allow it to be present and discover that it's possible to meet that difficulty with openness and compassion.
