Hello everyone,

I am angry. But it not is the general way you think of anger. I’m angry because I see all the destruction we as human beings have caused in our world. It is reflected clearly everyday as a collective madness, and it seems that instead of people waking up to the truth they ‘choose’ to remain blind. I’m an saddened and disappointed. I see all the suffering, I see how I used to be blind to it and now I’m aware, and it causes a lot of deep frustration. I know that the people that are ignorant to the spiritual path cannot see, and they deserve compassion…it just makes me wonder, at what point and at what cost will people finally begin to see that we are the root cause of all of this suffering?

I recently attended a lecture about the threat of nuclear war, and I just watched the news about the recent environmental catastrophies happening in our country (US) and it just shakes me deep to my core. I feel so much anguish, all the unimaginable suffering is almost too great. How can we not see?! I have to remind myself to use all of this as fuel to propel myself deeper into my practice. It’s just so sad.
