Dan Millman : Resistance Is Suffering

Download MP3!

"Pain is a relatively objective, physical phenomenon; suffering is our psychological resistance to what happens. Events may create physical pain, but they do not in themselves create suffering.
Resistance creates suffering. Stress happens when your mind resists what is...The only problem in your life is your mind's resistance to life as it unfolds."

~ Dan Millman, 21st century philosopher from The Way of the Peaceful Warrior

The Dalai Lama says basically exactly the same thing: "Pain is inevitable; suffering is optional."

Are you suffering?

If so, what are you resisting?

Allow life to unfold…
