It certainly seems to be. It does get tough sometimes though. The I look around and see people who have problems, real life or death problems and I think that I don't have it so bad really.

This most fundamental of principles, non-grasping and non-aversion seems to be the most difficult aspect. It permeates every other aspect of my practice.

Anyone heard the myth of Sisyphus? It can feel like taht sometimes. just when you think you've moved your rock to the top *boom* you're at the bottom again. I need to break the cycle here. Or accept the cycle. Eesh.
