Belief and Intention as Sources of Struggle

Struggles often arise from a lack of belief or misguided expectations of others, suggesting that personal troubles can be rooted in our perception of reality. Acknowledging that others may appear to oppress us can lead to self-reflection, prompting us to either set healthy boundaries or provide them with positive judgment. By focusing on the concept that our thoughts directly influence our actions and speech, the importance of maintaining pure and constructive thoughts becomes clear. This approach aligns with the teachings that emphasize the necessity of proper intentions to yield positive outcomes in our lives.
