The Search For Truth Is Really A

One False Idea Is That Anyone Can Hurt You. Events Can Ruin Your Reputation, Take Your Money, Mistreat You, Revenge Itself Upon You, Deceive, Betray, Abandon You, But Cannot Hurt You.

A Desperation To Escape A Problem Is The Wrong Way. A Passion To Understand It Is The Right Way

We Never Get Upset Over What Happens. Never. We Get Upset Because Of Preconceived Ideas As To What We Think Should Happen, What We Want To Happen. When Our Preference Clashes With The Reality, We Get Hurt. Rid Yourself Of All Preconceived Ideas As To What Should Happen. You Are Then At Peace Whatever Happens.

You Can End Half Your Troubles Immediately By No Longer Permitting People To Tell You What You Want.

We Cannot Be Free Of Nagging Desires Through Suppression. This Is Like Trying To Keep A Rubber Boat Beneath The Water. But We Remove Compulsive Desires Altogether By Understanding Their Nature.
