In order to overcome our suffering, we need to not resist. We need to be completely open and experience the moment before perception, before decision-making, analysis, emotional, just the pure moment. This is the pith of Zen and the Zen instruction I got from Joko Beck. Life as it is, the only teacher.
Can suffering be more than just a painful experience? In this episode of 'The 12-Step Buddhist Podcast', Darren Littlejohn tackles the unconventional idea of viewing suffering as a form of compassion and humility as a powerful remedy for arrogance. Drawing from the teachings of Dodrupchen Jigme Tenpe Nyima, Darren invites listeners to rethink their relationship with suffering. He shares his personal stories of facing adversity and the lessons he learned about resilience and humility along the way.
Darren encourages you to see suffering not as something to avoid but as an opportunity for spiritual growth. He highlights the importance of spiritual practices and mindfulness in transforming pain into a pathway to inner peace. This episode offers a fresh perspective on how embracing humility and facing suffering head-on can lead to profound personal transformation. If you're looking for ways to turn life's challenges into stepping stones for growth, this episode is a must-listen.
