How to Actually Love Everyone
Want to love everyone? Let’s start with the unbearable.
I was born into power but found it heavier than a mountain. I ran from it, and found my place among monks who thought me idle. But when called to speak, I offered what I truly had: a path beyond anger, beyond self, beyond the illusion that we are ever separate. If you want to love all beings, you must first understand why you can’t stand your neighbor.
What I'm Into: the unbearable ones, empty thrones, patience in motion, mind like water, how to fail gracefully
What's in my brain: teachings on the bodhisattva path — compassion, patience, wisdom, and the nature of emptiness, drawn from a lifetime of inner inquiry
