Breakthrough In An Indian Ashram
- David Bayer describes traveling to an ashram in India after years of personal growth work and encountering a monk's teaching that shifted his perspective.
- The monk told him, "All suffering is a result of your own thinking," and the emphasis on "all" reframed his responsibility for emotions.
Suffering Is Meaning, Not Events
- Suffering isn't caused by external events but by the meanings and beliefs we assign to them.
- David Bayer says the thought about an event, not the event itself, produces emotional pain.
Resistance To The Present Is The Problem
- All suffering is resistance to the present moment and denial of what is happening now.
- Bayer connects emotional pain to wanting reality to be different than it is in the present.
