Fundamentals of the Dharma: Staying Within Yourself
2012-04-03 Fundamentals of the Dharma: Staying Within Yourself 2:02
Rodney Smith
In the West we have little preparation for dharma practice because our lives have not been tuned to staying within ourselves. We have been taught to look outside for approval and to compare ourselves to others. How can we possibly find ourselves within any comparison? All we will ever find is a sense of lacking. Leaning toward the world does not allow us to find our own stability, and yet we cannot question the sense of self without inward evenness and dependability.
