'Nobody wants to be in pain. Human beings want to be comfortable. Our nature is to seek comfort and avoid pain - that's human. However, when you begin to feel the pull of truth, there is no longer any possibility of avoiding the dark side.' - Jon Bernie
'If you can see where the struggle is, identify the struggle and feel the struggle, then you're home free. Bring awareness to the struggle, because the struggle is the very center of identity. Turn towards what's difficult. Bring awareness to where the resistance is. We begin to see and experience resistance more and more subtly. It becomes so subtle.' - Bernie
'Compassion is the awareness that allows whatever arises to arise. The grief, the fear, the discomfort, the wanting the discomfort to be gone. The wanting to be free! That too. Nothing is excluded. How could anything be? Awareness is infinite. It's all-encompassing.' - Bernie
