EP357: More abstract, more suffering

Notice that the more attention is in abstraction, the harder things feel.

More abstract, more problems. Really, all problems are abstractions. You can’t find a problem outside of abstraction.

Me-and-my-life is the ultimate abstraction. When we live with attention there, as we so often do, life feels extremely hard. Even when it’s good, it’s not that good. 

There is another way. Reality. Coming out of abstraction, out of imagination, and into reality.

I’ll walk through several specific examples of how this looks in this episode.
