Willing to be disturbed...

“When we’re not willing to be disturbed, which means when we’re not willing to find out that what we thought was real in fact wasn’t real, we can never be happy.

If we’re not willing to find out that what we believe in really isn’t the truth, then we can never be happy.

If we’re not honestly willing to look at the whole structure of who we think we are and be open to the idea that maybe we’ve been completely wrong about ourselves -

maybe we’re not who we thought we were at all -

if we’re not open to that idea, at least that possibility,

there’s no way we can find our way out of suffering.”
