teacher who brought lovingkindness meditation practice to the Western world, told a story about her early days inviting a Buddhist monk to her then newly founded meditation center in Barre, Massachusetts. A friend of hers had just passed away, and she was trying hard not to be “attached” to grieving by crying too much and missing what she was supposed to be learning during the monk’s stay. In one of her meetings with the monk, he asked her if she was crying about her friend in her meditation.
I had an odd thought about crying that came to me while working on this post.
The beauty of us that prevails even through hardship and strain, lost sleep and despair, is that we are that inner Rube Goldberg machine. The tracks are there—ancient and modern, universal and personal. When we cry, our inner wisdom takes over, and we go instinctively just where we need to. An invisible and exquisite sequence, a simple task of our humanity that brings us from point A to point B.Maybe you have a piece of music that helps the process. Maybe it’s writing in a journal.
