Dark psychological states are clouds that dampen the light of your clear awareness. Just as blue skies always exist above clouds, peace lies beneath the stories that bring you down emotionally. Pay attention to your mental activity and notice which stories cause suffering. Ask yourself if you can know for sure whether any of these narratives are true. Most troubles don’t hold up under the light of conscious scrutiny. The more false stories you lay to rest, the more you’ll live…
In the light.

Delightfully simple and irrefutable. It also shows me how much progress I’m making!
