"Before enlightenment, I used to be depressed; after enlightenment, I continue to be depressed. You don't make a goal out of relaxation and sensitivity. Have you ever heard of people who get tense trying to relax? If one is tense, one simply observes one's tension. You will never understand yourself if you seek to change yourself. The harder you try to change yourself the worse it gets. You are called upon to be aware." - Anthony De Mello.
I liked this! I try to implement this but I get angry when someone says change urself! :-) ??!!!?
I think I m hanging by a thin thread to this be aware instead of changing concept that I get angry when someone challenges it? I think...
when u have an Idea and someone challenges it,
If u are truly convinced, u are calm when u explain the idea to others. If you get agitated that someone challenges it or if u have a very strong need to convince others about an idea, chances are that you urself are not convinced?
