Unconditional love heals the body & the mind

Native American wisdom

In case that link is no longer valid - An American Indian elder described his own inner struggles this way: "Inside of me there are two dogs. One of the dogs is mean and evil. The other dog is good. The mean dog fights the good dog all the time." When asked which dog wins, he reflected for a moment and replied, "The one I feed the most."

Also a great links page

From some old files -

Yes, you know you're making some progress when your initial reaction to those who might wish you harm or scoff or deride you is a tendency toward compassion rather than hostility. It's a prospect I personally would have regarded as totally loopy for most of my life this time around. And the seeds of that compassion is the simple recognition that anybody who directs any ill-feeling toward any other being for any reason at all is coming from a very unlit place just at that moment and having personally experienced how truly awful such unlit places are ... you can't help but feel at least compassion and wish them a speedy exit from such a place ...

It is an interesting question - can you have genuine compassion for the lost unless you have had direct personal experience of being lost ... the same applies to chaos, despair, lack of confidence, social ineptitude and discomfort and awkwardness ... schizophrenia at its worst is all of the above and a bit more ... I mean it's tough to be suave and charming whilst you're hearing voices nobody else does or having experiences most people could never begin to imagine ... it's like a crash course in compassion ... literally ...
