a dangerously insane and very sick species. That’s not a
judgment. Ifs a fact. It is also a fact that the sanity is there
underneath the madness. Healing and redemption are

Coming back specifically to what you said — it is
certainly true that, when you accept your resentment,
moodiness,anger,andsoon,youarenolongerforcedtoact

others.ButIwonderifyouarenotdeceivingyourself.When
youhavebeenpracticingacceptanceforawhile,asyouhave,
there comes a point when you need to go on to the next
stage, where those negative emotions are not created
anymore. If you don't, your "acceptance" just becomes a
mental label that allows your ego to continue to indulge in
unhappiness and so strengthen its sense of separation from
other people, your surroundings, you’re here and now. As
you know, separation is the basis for the ego's sense of
identity. True acceptance would transmute those feelings at
once. And if you really knew deeply that everything is
"okay,"asyouputit,andwhichofcourseistrue,thenwould
youhavethose negativefeelings in the first place?Without
judgment,withoutresistancetowhatis,theywouldnotarise.

Are you defendingyour right to be unconscious, your right
to suffer? Don't worry: nobody is going to take that away
