"The mind creates the abyss, the heart crosses it." --Nisargadatta Maharaj

Heart Light in Dark Times

"I've been reflecting on the environmental crisis, and as I do, I find myself in the darkness, as I imagine we all are to some degree. And that says something, something we shouldnt brush aside or try to make go away. This is a place for sharing truth -- and the truth right now is darkness. I sometimes reflect on how I've been practicing meditation, morality, restraint, generosity, sharing, and simplicity for more than forty years with as much integrity as possible. I shouldn't have to feel this bad, this hopeless, this guilty. Yet when I look at this crisis, I'm in the dark." Ajahn Sucitto shares more in this thoughtful and timely exploration of darkness, loss, truth-telling, and the guiding light of the heart.
