Heart Wisdom with Jack Kornfield

NOTE

Embracing Fear and Growth

The constant judgment of others' actions reveals weakness. Finding beauty in the present moment and the tranquility of oneself or others is what we truly long for. Fear can be beneficial, especially in physical danger, but unnecessary fears often stem from the anticipation of events that may never come to pass. These fears represent the threshold of growth, indicating a shift towards experiencing something new and larger than the current self. Even pride, when channelled towards being valuable and noble in the world, can be a positive force, urging individuals to strive towards becoming their best selves and embodying virtues like a Buddha.
