 Beyond Heartache
In truth, we [parents] never have stood between our kids and heartache–theirs or our own. The good news is that the Buddha showed us a path that leads beyond heartache, beyond samvega [dismay], beyond suffering. Our best wish for our children is that they find it, too. – Mary Talbot, “The Dismay of Motherhood” Click here to learn how you can receive a 30 minute Mindfulness Break in your home. |

 Samvega
I will tell of how I experienced samvega. Seeing people floundering like fish in small puddles, competing with one another–as I saw this, fear came into me. The world was entirely without substance. All the directions were knocked out of line. Wanting a haven for myself, I saw nothing that wasn’t laid claim to. Seeing nothing in the end but competition, I felt discontent. – The Buddha, “The Dismay of Motherhood” |
