Opposites create wholeness

Life comes in pairs of opposites: hot and cold, joy and sorrow, anger and peace. These aren’t battles to fight. They are opportunities to see how simple wholeness is.

When we feel anger, it can feel sharp and consuming, yet beneath it is often hurt. When we pause long enough to be curious about it rather than react, anger eventually dissolves into compassion. This is the essence of wholeness. We don’t need to resist our anger if we can let it return us to compassion.

The same is true of other intense emotions: fear can dissolve into trust, restlessness can transform into stillness, and attachment can evolve into love. Our greatest power comes not from escaping feelings; it comes from allowing them to transform. Every sensation or feeling carries its own doorway home.

What if your only job was to be curious enough to let it dissolve into the truth?
