The mind is always seeking zones of safety, and these zones of safety are continually falling apart. Then we scramble to get another zone of safety back together again. We spend all our energy and waste our lives trying to re-create these zones of safety, which are always falling apart.
That’s samsara: The cycle of suffering that comes from continuing to seek happiness in all the wrong places.

Thank you, Karl. Pema always manages to ground me when I’m drifting … Many congratulations to you on 15 years of daily Mindfulness, shared so generously. Namaste x
