Consciousness is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it is the cause of our suffering. Human beings, being the most conscious within the animal kingdom, also tend to suffer the most. On the other hand, consciousness is the seed of our salvation. The human condition may look tragic, but it flips when we direct our attention to it.

There is no “mellow” way to truth. Contrary to common understanding, true faith is more a challenge than a sanctuary. To have faith is not to be a sissy but a warrior. While faith has nothing to do with being a he-man with the associated aggressiveness, it does mean being courageous enough to face reality as it is, no matter how ugly it may look.
