Finding Acceptance

Sometimes we approach our spiritual practice and our life as a self-improvement project.  This may sound like a good idea, but the felt experience is of endless conflict.  Instead, great teachers urge us to begin where we are: to accept our current situation as it is.  This may seem like condoning our own shortcomings and the problems of the world.  But in practice, the turning toward our experience with kindness and compassion opens us to the possibility of transformation.
