Our practice and training take place in a field that includes the internal and external environments we’re living in. What we can’t do through our willpower we can receive through the different qualities in the environment. Connect it all, then everything will come into balance – there is an intelligence that we haven’t been aware of. You get so far with your own willpower and the rest comes from this source which is beyond that.

Anger, Grief, Afflictive Emotions
48:17
|
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
|
Anger, grief and fear are primary reflexes that have the potential of taking us back to our safe, sympathetic intimate environment. To the extent that we have lost connection to the capacity of our autonomic nervous system to discharge stress, emotional energies freeze and don’t get resolved. This leave residues that sour and cripple the heart. So we practice cultivating our intimate environment; it's from here we can meet and transmute these afflictive emotions with pure presence.
