Seeking an ESCAPE from SUFFERING 

Thank you Nada. I really needed this reminder today. I woke up with this feeling of crushing loneliness and unlovability. My distractions had worn off and I was back to experiencing the deep unresolved pain of my inner child. I will try to stay present and face this feeling. There is nowhere to run to to escape this feeling. I must try to understand it, embrace it, and one day heal it.

I feel grateful to have discovered your channel 4 years back. Your insights have truly changed my perspective on life. I've been escaping my own suffering for a long time. Hoping I can build some capacity to sit with it :)

Thank you Nada ❤

Thanks for the lecture video.

Great video, Nada. Thanks. I'm always amazed when musicians cull-forth extra-musical problems and considerations before a concert such as transport-technical "problems", changes in tried and true solutions with their instruments (reeds, bow etc.) or with decisions altering the practised fingerings, dynamics or even ones of tempo, with changes in lighting or position on-stage - even causing small accidents and forgetting or misplacing necessary equipment or fighting with ones' collaborators all of which contribute to this preoccupation. Recently, I suddenly couldn't see out of the right corner of my eye, but instead of panicking, I remembered to CLEAN MY GLASSES. These things have little to do with the main message of the music but serve to get us used to "suffering" and become consumed with this resistance/suffering and then, during the concert, to let it all go. Some musicians throw-up just before a concert and are then perfectly fine on-stage. Others wait until almost too late to appear and others throw all considerations to the wind and do it as they love it. It's almost as if the whole exercise of causing ones' own extra suffering is being used as a musical, rubber-band-like sling-shot, its resilient bounce-back-elasticity catapulting the music and the musician into musical heaven. The musical message gains flight-speed in this way. After a concert many a good musician are then occupied with all the things they think went wrong and suffer the "defeats" over and over again, even though they offered things of great beauty very well, indeed. In this way they begin rebuilding the isometric necessary to do this once again the next evening and then the next. It's the quality of the suffering which matters. I'm always amazed that things work out well for me on-stage and that the music gets communicated. In the few times a concert goes poorly for some reason, there's always the next concert, tomorrow, to consider. No matter if it had been good or bad, I'm glad to have learned to celebrate having played the concert in the first place and to have shared love with my audiences.

Thank you for the reminder ! 😌

Thank you Nada. ❤

thankyou for sharing your insights as always nada. is there anything you could say for us about the purpose of awakening, self improvement etc. Not as a way of changing who we are intrinsically, but more about refining ourselves to become better versions of ourselves so that we don't get confused between....

To find out the cause of one.s suffering? I need to think about that.

Beautiful video ❤

No, Buddha said that energy cannot control , in the real world we have to look at each other , we look at ourselves and at each other .. but the self inner side of us said it must must .. if we learn that energy is a free thing , not control we know it is a selfless thing.. in Jewish and Christianity.. it is to be and witness , as we seek , but the more we form this hard self image it’s just become hard to us . Suffering is real but it is a genuine thing.

Yay

Has anyone been able to really clearly understand and express his/her "root" cause of their fundamental suffering out of which sub-sufferings manifest?...💗🍃🙏
