The Mechanism of Suffering

At the root of our suffering, you find this not allowing what's already allowed. What we are allows all thoughts, all sensations, all feelings to come and go. The moment you want to be an image, you want to hold up an image of yourself. Now there's a problem. Now you have to go to war on some level with present experience toHold up an image. But when there's no image, you know, when you discover that what you are doesn't need an image, then you're really finally truly free just to experience what you experience. It's constant dance, a constant invitation that's given to us freely to see this.
