This is why we practice but it never feels any less shocking to see the myriad ways dukkha manifests. So, once one crisis has been averted and I feel I have learned how to live on the edge of the abyss over which our lives are constantly suspended I forget. And it all seems to begin anew.
Only clear seeing through the eyes of wisdom seems to me to be able to provide a true release from bondage. But, where do they sell those?
