Two Types Of Heartbreaks

Yes. " Heartbreak comes with the territory called being human." as Parker Palmer says in this passge. As human beings we all go through all kinds of sufferings-physical, mental, emotional and relational. Our challenge is how do we turn the power of suffering toward new life. Trying to numb the pain of suffering as anesthetics deepens our suffering. Keeping our heart suppressed and closed and making it hard and inflexible creates more suffering. When I relate to my suffering and or someone's suffering with an open, subtle and compassionate heart, I develop greater capacity to take in my sorrows and joys. This is spiritual alchemy. I have encountered many losses in my life causing a lot of emotional pain. And I have learned how to relate to my painful experiences by keeping my heart open and processing my pain with loving kindness. This is the way I relate to "life's little death" without numbing and suppressing my pain without an anesthetics. Namaste. Jagdish P Dave

Thank you! Broken am I. But Someone, much Bigger than me entered into my broken place. Nothing/No one can enter a secured space. A brake is just what I needed for completion.🌱

A practical sermon for a equanimity life living .I had also faced hurdles of money ,jobs ,etc etc. There has been God given sermon at each stage to face the bad times . Buddha,s guidance and a line that : All is temporary in a temporary world and each material things had to change :: This line provides a solace and doing Meditation helps . Thnks

I asked myself what helps me ..... everything I feel makes me feel alive, makes me more aware ---and for me that ferls like a reward. Awareness makes me rich and everything that comes my way becomes a gift because at the bottom of it all lies the mystery of who am I and how did I come to be .....then everything else that happens to me takes on a temporary face ....
