We all live on our own mountain tops. To develop our compassion, from time to time we can visit each other’s mountain tops and see life through each other’s eyes.
We spend much of our lives trying to fit our own illusory image of ourselves, or trying to label others with our stories. It can bring us peace to stop pushing such myths, and let things be.
We spend a lot of our lives protecting an imaginary self that doesn’t exist.
Meditation, consistently practised, is a useful way to achieve peace and happiness.
