"There's a strength of heart that comes when we don't just follow our habit. It's a strengthening of heart that brings a sense of wellbeing or purity. Because we begin to train ourselves that we don't have to follow all our habits and all our desires." – Jack Kornfield
In this episode, Jack mindfully explores:
- Right Attitude / Right Thought as one of the steps on the Buddha's Noble Eightfold Path
- The three aspects of Right Attitude: openness/exploration, renunciation/effort, love/non-harming
- Working with our unique personality in this incarnation
- The importance of adding fire to our spiritual practice
- Breaking free from our automatic habits by bringing conscious awareness to them
- Ram Dass and becoming a "connoisseur or your neurosis"
- Transforming our life from automatic pilot to being fully conscious
- The story of Larry Brilliant helping cure smallpox and what he learned about surrender and interconnectivity
"I think love really manifests when things get difficult. That's when you really know it. That's the fire that melts whatever barriers we ever have in our hearts. And our hearts want to be melted. The pain isn't so bad; it's much better than having it still solid and barricaded." – Jack Kornfield
