There are times that we might feel cut off from the world around us. Still, no matter how despairing or cut off we can feel at any given time in our lives, we are not actually severed from the essential flow of life or from one another. If we get quiet for a while and pay careful attention, this is what we realize.
Only by turning on the light, you can instantly destroy the darkness. Meditation can be the light shining awareness onto our attachments and afflictive emotions. As turning on the lights in a darkroom instantly removes the darkness. Likewise, through meditation or even, a rather simple analysis of our patterns of ego-clinging and afflictive emotions can make them collapse. Such collapse sees through our attachments and how these can be the cause of our suffering. Such can lead to liberation from the cycle of Samsara and the transcending of suffering .
